A herd of elephants is an awesome sight not to be missed. This month's exquisite frame has captured one such moment from Gavi, one of Kerala's popular wildlife and eco-tourism destination. Luxuriant grass filled terrain soon after the southwest monsoon is a feast for the elephants. Such herds can be spotted in and around Gavi, where visitors have the options for trekking, camping and bird watching.

Gavi is rich in flora and fauna. Tropical forests fill the valleys here along with sprawling grasslands, sholas, cascading waterfalls and cardamom plantations. Gavi is about 28 km from Vandiperiyar and is in the district of Pathanamthitta.
