Okra flower (Abelmoschus esculentus)

India tiger safari trip.

Kanha was a bit of a dissapointment as there was heavy flooding, especially in the core zone, so noone was allowed in.
Normally we were supposed to have 3 game drives in the core zone. We did only one in the bufferzone, but the animals were very scarce. In the afternoon it was raining so heavily that we couldn't even go out and our second game drive was cancelled.

So the second day we cancelled our third game drive and visited a local village instead.
We would not have been allowed in the core zone anyway, and we feared the bufferzone would be just the same as the day before.

Okra , Abelmoschus esculentus, known in many English-speaking countries as ladies' fingers or ochro, is a flowering plant in the mallow family. It is valued for its edible green seed pods. The geographical origin of okra is disputed, with supporters of West African, Ethiopian, and South Asian origins. The plant is cultivated in tropical, subtropical and warm temperate regions around the world
