Caught Special - 73

Two weeks ago, there was this heavy rain in Bangalore that was announced to be even reaching a new record rainfall for the month of May in 60 years (see report); on that Saturday evening about 6 pm, the rains lashed around our apartment also.  

This Cormorant bird that was probably on its way back home at the central island of Madiwala lake located closely behind our apartments, seemed to have taken a temporary stopover on one of our sliver oak trees to safeguard itself from the heavy winds. 

I had earlier grabbed a picture of a Cormorant bird on the Meenachil river at Kumarakom, see the 15th picture in Caught Special 62 here.  

Though the view of this bird on that windy Saturday evening was not very direct from our balcony, and with the trouble of heavy windy splash of rainwaters, I somehow managed to use an umbrella over me and take a few pictures of this little bird that was really in a state of difficulty in that tough weather condition.

Caught Special - 72

7+ years ago, this had started with no intention, as a tiny plant in a small pot from our balcony garden... from the jamun fruits (naaval pazham) we had bought from a nearby shop, after I ate, we had sown some seeds in a garden pot casually, and one germinated!  

After keeping it in our balcony for several months, we handed it over to the apartment gardener. It grew fast and safe into a big tree during these years in our apartment backyard right below our balcony, and we did not expect so soon, that this May it is bearing fruits, and a lot of them! We heard that someone in the neighborhood has even plucked over 5 kg of fruits from our tree already... while squirrels are also having a gala time eating those sweeter fruits every day!

What: Our jamun plant became a tree, is bearing fruits after 7+ years
Where: Home
