MY SURROUNDING

SQUIRREL

WHITE THROATED KINGFISHER

ROSE RINGED PARAKETS

Now days my latest  activity is photographing birds,trees and butterflies seen near my house.If you observe properly you will see there are many birds,trees and insects in your immediate surrounding area  which you tend to ignore in your everyday life.Near my house I see  bats, butterflies,parakets,koyal,sparrows (their population is dwindling  in Mumbai) kabar etc.Trees like jamun,eucalyptus,peltophorum,badam,banyan and many more.

Early morning  the koyal wakes me up at 4 am followed by the parakets.Sometimes I see a kingfisher and other times hear the shrill call of the kite.When I go for my walk the peltophorum showers its flowers on me or the champa (plumeria alba) flowers fragrance awakens my olfactory nerves.

The joy  all this give me is immence.

You to can do it. What is necessary  initially is a little  patience and observation and then automatically you will start noticing these beautical elements in your surrounding.

With the smart phones which we all carry you can photograph these and try to study them in detail later.Show them to your family and it becomes a good topic of conversation and who knows you may even develop a new hobby like birding,photography  or plant study,gardening.If not just forget all and enjoy the moment.
