Very true….This is a lake in southern part of Kolkata and famous for the migrating birds that come here during winter months. In other times, it is still home to many species of birds and a treat for bird lovers. The storks that are white spots here ( I did not have a suitable camera to take better pics) are painted storks, a native of this region. It is favourite spot for early morning walkers and joggers and one of the very few places that is still open to public in morning hours at the moment.
Beautiful haiku, Goutam. I learned something new because I wasn’t familiar with Gulmohurs, Your photo is beautiful – a serene escape from the busyness of life.
So happy to know that you liked it. Thank you so much. Yes, this lake is like an island of tranquility in the midst of a chaotic, fast-paced city. Also a paradise for nature and specifically bird-lovers 😊🙏
Thank you so much. Glad that you enjoyed both. Took this picture while we went for a morning walk to one of the lakes near our house. The Haiku followed. 😊
Lovely haiku. The gulmohurs are trees, right?
