Who needs a refrigerator when you can cool it in the Ganges Water? I clicked this picture at the end of my rafting from Kaudiyala to Shivpuri in Uttarakhand.
Indian Silverbills or Munia in Hindi
I went for a bird round after maybe a month. Was not at home for many weekends and when I was at home, I was just too lazy. But not today. I dragged myself out and went looking for birds. And I found a lot of Indian Silverbills or Munias as they are known in…

Clicked this one at Rishikesh, I managed to get closer shots but then I clipped the wings of the bird. So this one has to go on my blog. Got to know the name Tawny Eagle as usual via Indiamike.com

Before the Camp Woke Up
Two of my bigger strip reports from Lonavala and Kaudiala are pending but then it is the end of the semester time when all I will do for a long time is grading. I have cribbed enough on this blog whenever I have to grade so I will just make a token protest and move…
Friday Flowers- A Big Bunch of Red Roses
Last week I visited Jantar Mantar to support Anna Hazare’s fast for brining the Jan Lokpal Bill. While I was crossing the Palika Bazaar side I noticed this huge bunch of roses on the pavement with two people chatting around it. The way it was packed I can safely guess that the roses were headed…
