       Humans have their own cars , flashy ,fast and flamboyant .... carbon ridden..

Hello I am Bobby Snail and this is my better half , Bebo Snail . We are the slow movers . Slower that the tortoise . But we never crash and we never fall off a cliff . See my home is right on top of the hill and my car is environment friendly . Perched on the cliff .

 My snail trail may be slimy but my carbon foot print is zero .

Delhi people fight for parking lots , i have the entire hill to myself and i am not afraid of the cliffs ...it's so exciting to hang off the cliff.

Those two cars parked down the hill look so envious that they have turned almost green with envy ....but my car is the greenest !!

the sun birds... are they a couple ?

They came as a couple . At least now i knew that they were a couple . Until now i thought they belong to two different species , do they?

One of them perched on the cauliflower plants and the other preferred the barbed wire...

See the blue sun bird seated on a cauliflower leaf....

The other yellow brown one kept herself on the barbed wire...can you spot that brown scruffy bird ?

Look at them in the same frame...

And then the blue one hops , as she does so many time as i struggle with the camera....but then , the hop, as my eyes can see that , is not actually just a hop . It is a full fledged flight with wings stretched wide ...and beautiful....the camera caught it even as the eyes missed it..

The brown scruffy is already missing ...see the blue one in a close up ...how beautiful....blurred picture because my camera was following her/him...( please clear my doubts on it )...

And where did they settle... the blue one choose a broccoli leaf this time and the brown scruffy sat on the ground...

Jahan main jaati hoon waheen chale aate ho... isn't that cute...
After a few hours both of them were on the lemon tree , sucking the nectar from the abundant flowers... and when i focused the camera , this one hopped...err...flew..

Look at the beautiful flight , the fully stretched wings....It's the same shiny blue sun bird.
Looking darker here because the light is from opposite direction...

I hope Nirupama sundar will come to read this post and correct me if the names of the birds are not correct or i mistook them for a couple:)

Are they really sun birds? 

Where are you Nirupama ? Why don't you mail me once . I will stalk you with my questions about all this ....
