The more pictures I take, the more gratitude I feel. I am becoming more and more aware of the details in the environment and that fulfills my heart. I have seen this plant for over 2 years and ignored it, until yesterday as I was sitting and waiting to take pictures of the birds in front of my house and I looked closer and paid more attention to it. I have learnt that it’s one the plants that could actually help fight against Global Warming.
Nature is teaching me a lot. I am so thankful. It’s the simple things in life that we ignore yet they can be the most amazing discoveries.

I had just decided to sit outside and watch the birds and their behaviour to continue with my birding journey. But I need to be honest, birds are a challenging because they don’t sit still for too long and they need someone to be alert. Once you see it on a perching on a branch, you snooze for a second, look back into the view finder and it’s gone.
I sat there long enough and became lucky. At some point they all moved to another house but I got atleast two shots.
And a few days before, I had taken a drive to Chanoga, hoping to see some aquatic birds but the light was going, so I had to take atleast one shot I could document. It was of the famous African Jacana. After various attempts, I managed to lock one picture in with just the perfect light hitting on it.
My birding journey continues and it has been a thrill so far as nature keeps letting me see its hidden details up close.
