6-21 September 2011

Here are some pictures we have taken on our walks.

Apurva, Govindharajan's youngest, surprised us with a visit on the 15th.  On the 16th she stayed overnight while her father travelled on business.  She's sweet and fun.  We enjoyed her stay with us.

Carolyn and Apurva at Singara

We couldn't find a name for this guy, but it looks like some kind of ground beetle.  It's 3" long!

I found this flower at the Taj hotel where I take yoga.

From the side.  Isn't that elegant?

When we moved into our new house, I cried because I couldn't have the bird feeders and bird bath I was used to.  Now, we throw feed over the driveway out back to the roof behind the house where birds come to feed.  And the rain provides large pools of water for them to drink and bathe in.

Here's a Grey Wagtail, a marsh person who comes to pad around in the  water.  His long tail bobs behind him the whole time as if he bends his knees and bounces as he walks.

Here are Spotted Doves

And this guy is a pup who lives nearby.  Very sweet and needing love.
