Far away in a Island called Cacun there lived two parakeets called Para and Keet.
One day Para got mad on Keet, and bit him on Keet's leg

Keets leg got hurt , but she dint do anything to Para , but ofcourse she was very angry at Para and Para started feeling bad about hurting Keet's leg

After watching her like that for a while Para decided to go and talk to her, Keet listened to what ever Para said

They kept calm for a while , closed their eyes and thought..."Ok lets forget them all..!!"

Now they forgot everything and tried becoming like they were in the past..!

and started becoming closer

Ahaa...now Para turned to Keet and said.. "Dear ..did u forgive me...I was really."..and suddenly Keet said..." Dear...lets forget all that...and lets be like we were ....."..

Now Para stopped Keet and started coming really close to Keet...

ahaaa..!

and now...from this part it is just like the routine Bollywood..mohabatein..movie...

and the story continues ...

for ever...

and ever...

and ever...!!!

I clicked this cute one, when we went for hiking in Boulder..
She was sitting on a rock and was not flying, while her other friends were....I initially thought it was a dead one and moved near....she dint move, but I understood that its not a dead one....went further close..no movement at all...
then I laid down( actually almost slept on the ground)..waited for sometime ..it dint move...!! I started click...I thought it would definetly fly after heaing the shutter..! ..but it dint fly...
then I started clicking one after the other...and now..she slowly started opening her wings, like it was giving poses to my clicks....I wouldn't have stopped clicking unless it flew...
but I heard his voice from back..'Paddu leave that poor thing'.. :D..HE HE
Now I have to quit..!!

PICTURES OF SOME WILD FLOWERS FROM THE ANNE U. WHITE HIKING TRAIL ;BOULDER

2006-05-24T22:34:00.000-06:00

Hiking in Boulder ..till now I was under the impression that all we can see is those hard heated rocky mountains every where..and some times those coniferous forests..
ooh not to forget....I some times get to c those dry grass and dry leaves..

But this trail .....which is about a 3-4 mile round trip....is a different one...
got a chance to c some wide variety of wild flowers , couldn't find names for all of them..
but was able to identify some of them as from the family of 'Blue bonnets' ( Texas -state flowers)
and some of them are from the family of 'Gold yarrow'..
Lucky that I dint assume that this will also go into those 'drya' and 'browna' trails category.
I got to see some most beautiful butterflies I've ever seen and again some wild birds , couldn't click all of them as in the noon I dint get to listen any of those birds singing ...but as the sun started setting.....slowly they strarted coming out ....
as it was evening ....the lighting was not abundant , to click most of them..but got a chance to click the Stellars Jay , a very interesting bird...the color of it is so fascinating....and the high pitched sound it produced was a little weird , but that's a small point before its color and beauty..!

here are some of the wild flowers I clicked :D
enjoy!!
