Thanks Hema. The Ta Prohm Temple is one that they have decided to leave in the state they found it, with the jungle and the trees growing in, through and around it. This is part of the great Angkor Wat complex of temples found in central Cambodia. This is also the temple where the Alexandrine Parokeets and Red-breasted Parakeets nest. Need to get spottings posted of those beautiful birds!
Thanks for the ID NuwanChathuranga! and I enjoyed the reference link also.
