The huge Peacock had adopted our house as his territory ! He sensed that human tenants on his territory were nice ! They would offer wheat and and other tidbits to eat !
He also brought along his harem of around 5 peahens ! (1/3)
His active love-life eventually bore fruits! Umm...rather, bore eggs .
One of the hens chose the leaf-covered top of a large crate to lay eggs on ! Here she is seen sitting on the eggs!
My family waited patiently for days to see the chicks come out ! (2/3) ImageImage
Alas, no chicks came out ! And one fine day, dictated by instinct, she finally abandoned the eggs !
Here is the pic of the abandoned 'nest', if I may call it so ! 😥😢(3/3) Image
All stories do not have a happy ending !💔💔

Road along the River Teesta, eventually takes you into the clouds!
To the city of Gangtok!
Beauty of the gurgling mountain streams as we crossed bridges over troughs and valleys on the way was simply mesmerising ! (1/n) ImageImage
On reaching the RH, family members rushed to the mobile chargers, or to the toilets , जैसी जिसकी श्रद्धा !
But, I rushed to the windows to click pics of the valley down below !
Here are the pics.......(2/n) ImageImage
There can be no hill station worth its salt which may not have a MG Road, or a Mall Road !
Gangtok is no exception !
First thing after the siesta, we all dashed to MG Road for the evening ! It was raining !
Found it a very lively place !

Came across this book 'The Irrelevant Indian' by Shantanu Basu. What a thought provoking eye-popper ! His take on NPAs, loan waivers, food imports, coal and spectrum scams and the shambles of our public finances and what not, makes you sit up and take notice.
