This is a voluntary film shot and edited by Umang Bhattacharyya and myself,
made in Eaglenest to aid efforts of conservation and preservation. We
were there for a four day shoot invited by Umesh Srinivasan a wildlife
biologist from NCBS, Bangalore. Thanks to
Umesh and Rohan (also a wildlife biologist from NCBS) we got wonderful
insights into the forest and access to areas which would ordinarily be
impossible reach.
Eaglenest is a beautiful forest high up in the
mountains in Arunachal Pradesh's West Kameng District. It is one of the
most biodiversity rich places in the world, and only third to Andes, in
South America in terms of the bird species it is home to.
