Stray cattle, Kudagama, Sri Lanka

Stray cattle are a nuisance in Sri Lanka. se are let loose in the mornings by the owners and stray into any territory eating up the green plants. Very often they are on the roads causing danger to moving traffic. They find their way home to their owners in the evenings.

Bo-path Ella (waterfall), Kuruwita, Sri Lanka.

The waterfall shaped like the leaf of the Ficus religiosa - 'Bo tree', is situated about 3 Km from the Kuruwita town, on the Colombo - Ampara road. Some 'chalets' catering to tourists, have sprung up around the site. Quite a few people have died here attempting to scale the slippery rocks.
