Tried to list butterflies though I dunno know much about them .. ... The new flowers that I learnt in this trek have been marked in bold in the attached list. Sightings of 80+ flower sps including endangered Ceropegia and “Purandar-special” Geranium,, along with 6 new flowers .. .. impressive,, isn’t it ??&nbsp;</i><br><br>Thanks Chaitanya - our Leader, Tushar - our Co-Lee n TreKshitiZ for this wonderful experience !!<br><br>And thanks to Nature India for help in ID’ing a few flowers. Whatever little I know about flowers and overall bio-diversity, the lion’s share goes to Mr. Adesh Shivkar and Mr. Mandar Khadilkar of Nature India !! Their patience and knowledge sharing has definitely enriched me and brought me more closer to Mother Nature !!<br><br>Thanks &amp; Regards<br>Sugandha Nimkar.<br><br>Sr #	Marathi Name	Botanical
