Sheltering the shelter 









This tree on G.N. Road , T.Nagr, Chennai  looks ready to fall. Its shade is incredibly cool atleast  five degrees less than the intense Chennai heat. No wonder many come under it for shade and rest as the bus stop is practically an oven as its roof is some type horrible plastic that increases the ambient temperature. The tree is hopefully saved before it collapses. She is truly a Karma yogi!

Cookies Breakfast 


         This squirrel appears every morning in the park while I sit to do my breathing exercise and insist on getting fed on biscuits. Following his example half dozen friends of his join the bandwagon and happily feed on the biscuits so much so they have become addicts to maida and sugar.  Many times they end up fighting with each other trying to grab what I give from each other. It looks like a social disorder to some extent because of my intrusion. Slowly I am weening them away from the habit hopefully making them go back to nuts and fruits. Apparently love for creatures actually harm them  Better to leave them alone.
