Ridiyagama Safari and Hambanthota Bird Park

Published on 2023-06-17

Second day of the family trip. After the breakfast and another car fix up we visited the Ridiyagama safari. Where you can travel among free moving animals in a covered vehicle.

I liked the way this small deer is lighted up.

Then we traveled to Hambanthota Bird park. This is much well-kept compared to the Safari.
