The Kentish Plover, Charadrius alexandrinus, is a small wader in the plover bird family. Despite its name, this species no longer breeds in Kent, or even Great Britain. This beautiful specimen in breeding plumage was found in the wading ground of Wena Lake about 15km from Nagpur. See more pictures and read some details

Jonathan Livingston Tern

Little Tern - Sterna albifrons

When sometime during the early teens I had first picked the up the book “Jonathan Livingston Seagull” I remember having done so because of the very lovely photos of the Seagulls. Of Course! after having read the book it came to mean much more but there did remain one wish for a long long time.

Nagpur Police, in the wee hours today, intercepted and killed 3 alleged LeT terrorist who attacked the RSS headquarters. The news channels are full of the news. This cowardly attack is also a very sad incidence for me personally as it puts my beloved and peaceful city on the mindless violence map :(

However hats off to the Nagpur Police for their decisive action!
