Breakfast, Birds & Backing
Winds with Amazing Lightning
  Bear certainly was on no diet when he
saw his breakfast, just look at that cheesy grin.
Porridge, fry up and a bucket of tea, doesn’t get much better than this. Our
first Himalayan bulbul sat looking proud in the
garden.
  Behind Bear’s head I counted forty
eight vultures and one
co-operated and flew nearer.
   Below the back garden we watched a lady sowing, a family sowing
following on behind the dad working the team and
plough.
 Back to the garden and a butterfly attracted to a yellow flower.
  A chap posed this
way and that.
   A couple of big
fellas came by and a human.
 A real beauty
scruffing about.
   This handsome boy (crimson sunbird) settled to his
breakfast.
  Another at the end of the dining room
to set about a hibiscus flower.
   Two different varieties of poinsettia and a huge carpenter
bee from my breakfast seat.
   Another bulbul, a little brown job and
after breakfast we looked down at the lake, very dark as a helicopter passed below us.
  We bimbled back toward our room as
Ishwor (host) pointed out a nest, very hidden and
then he got it out to show us. He told us that the
pair had finished with it for the year and will build a new one when they
return.
   Blooms outside our room, then, the first big dollops
of rain.
 Looking down from our room the valley was very dull and hazy.
  We took the opportunity to lay on our
bed and simply cloud watch. A thin wisp coming from the next
valley and a puff coming up the
valley.
  The rain hammered as the clouds thickened. We could see spectacular lightning every
four or five minutes.
    In between power cuts and wi-fi signal
coming and going, Bear ordered bits for Beez and we thoroughly enjoyed watching
the valley appear and disappear.
 After supper we went to the front view
and saw Pokhara below.
ALL IN ALL A MIXED OL’ BAG OF
ENJOYMENT
BEAUTIFUL VIEWS TO CHILL OUT
