Nature from my window

                                                                                  The Moon at 4 AM in the morning as viewed from my window “The antidote to exhaustion isn’t rest. It’s nature.” – Shikoba “Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.” – Ashley Smith  These two beautiful quotes sum up exactly how I feel. Nature refreshes me and I can't have enough of it. I love spending time observing nature. The only side effect of drinking up this beauty is the feeling of immense joy:)                    The glorious Sun           ...

Birds in Ravangla, Sikkim, India

Fire tailed sunbird Nature fascinates me, the more time I spend in natural surroundings, the more I want it. The beauty, colours, sounds, the sylvan surroundings, and the serenity that nature offers is so blissful, refreshing, and fulfilling. Nothing can quite replace this feeling. Here is the next lot of bird pictures from Ravangla.

Nature is wonderful

Sunbird There were Sunbirds and Bulbuls in our garden today. What a wonderful sight! There is nothing quite like nature. The sights and sounds of nature are so therapeutic and peaceful. Birds in our garden have become so rare that I wonder where the birds have gone! Our growing population has ensured that we do not share space with these wonderful creatures who seem to be rarely seen. Other than crows and sparrows (I think their numbers are going down too), I can't see any other birds in our garden anymore!  Bulbul Sunbird
