WWF-India Maharashtra State office conducted a nature camp to Suryamal and Amla Wildlife Sanctuary from 28 to 29 June, 2014. We were 12 in number. Like of us, many other species overthere were prepared and anxiously waiting for rains. Farmers were ready, some of the monsoon ephimerals germinated and flowered as well. Only big factor missing was normal rains. But still, we got to see good amount of biodiversity. Here is the list:
