My current project in Kodaikanal involves putting together an exhibit on some of the endemic and sedentary birds found in the Sholaskyislands . I am building a total of 12 birds. Here are some images of a Nilgiri Sholakili, Nilgiri Flycatcher and White Bellied Sholakili.

I asked an Artificial Intelligence website to write a poem about Soil. This is what it came up with. And it took my breath away… Even Artificial Intelligence knows the value of soil. Will human beings get it before it is too late?? #SaveSoil #SoilChallenge Conscious Planet #SaveSoil
