Ornithology

1. Jungle crow - has jet black necks instead of the grey necks like house crows. Sometimes look similar to Koel in appearance but have different voices.
2. Rose ring Parakeet - Red ring mark on the neck. It can mimic any voice like parrots. (Parrots are not native to India; only Parakeets)
3. Sunbird (smallest bird in India) - has long curved beak and tongue for sucking nectar from the flowers like a bee and can fly fast. 
4. Cattle Egrets (Insectivorous) - yellow beak and white in color. It walks behind the cattle, and when the movement of cattle disturbs the insects making them fly, then it catches them easily. The male egret gets a coat of yellow on feathers and face to attract a female during the breeding period. 
5. Mynah - It has white spots on the wings.
6. Kingfisher - White-breasted, bluish in color, and lives in moist areas or near water. 
7. Swallow - It can fly at 170 miles per hour speeds. 
8. Small green barbet - It flies fast then closes its wings so they drop and then flies again. 
9. Copper Smith barbet - red-pink throat, flat pattern lines, and waves are formed during flying. 

//Termite traps - the termites will build a smooth crater-like hole in which small insects like ants get trapped, and the termite hiding below the trap will come and eat its prey.

Better sometimes to be blind, dumb, and deaf

It's better sometimes to be blind to the faults of some poor fellow beings.

Than to view them with visions unkind when there's good we ought to be seeing. 

It's better sometimes to be dumb than to speak just to be criticizing. 

Though it seems to be given some to recall traits both mean and despising,

Its better sometimes to be deaf than to hear only lying and pander, 

For there's nothing so low as of a good name destroyed by slander.

If I knew

If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep. 

I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the lord your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time that I saw you walk out the door. 

I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more. 

If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted in praise. 

I would tape each action and word so I could play them back day after day. 

If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two. 

to stop and say "I love you", instead of assuming you would know I do. 

If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day. 

Well, I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight. 

and we always get a second chance to make everything right. 

There will always be another day to say our "I love yous."

and certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything's I can do's."

But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get, 

I'd like to say how much I love you, and I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike. 

Today may be the last time you get to hold your loved one tight. 

So if you are waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? 

For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day. 

That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss. 

and you were too busy to grant someone what turned out to be their last wish. 

So hold your loved ones close today, and whisper in their ear.

that you love them very much and you'll always hold them dear. 

Take time to say "I'm sorry", "Please forgive me", "Thank you"

and if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
