Indian Summer a brief period after Autumn begins some cooling creates changes in leaf color, then a warm spell, and that's what we are having in North Carolina.
Clicked this Indian Sambar at the Tholpetty Wildlife Sanctuary in Wayanad district. It is my first shot of this deer. This deer which is a subspecies of the Sambar Deer is native to India and Sri Lanka. This subspecies is one of the largest Sambar subspecies. Large males weight up to 270-280 kg. Sambar live in both lowland dry forests and mountain forests. Unlike the other subspecies of the Sambar the Indian Sambar is not listed as a vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List.

Adding to the nearly 50+ species of birds that visit my backyard is this latest addition, the most magnificent of birds, the Indian Peafowl. Yep, it is perched on the gate to my home, a surprise afternoon guest. I am seeing quite a few new species around my home lately and am wondering why. The peafowls, I am being told, were originally inhabiting the area now cleared for the Kannur International Airport that was opened to the public in 2018. I am not convinced though as peafowl sightings have only been pretty recent. Covid really did stir up things but I would like to know what exactly is going on. Coupled with the appearance of new species is the disappearance of commonly found birds like the babblers, both Yellow-billed as well as Jungle. I do occasionally see a few Jungle Babblers, but very few in number and not in their usual large groups.
Seen on the streets of Colmar, France last December. Happy Sliders Sunday! HSS!
Thanks to everyone for stopping by to view, fave, and comment!!
An Indian Pond Heron in non-breeding plumage. The birds appear stocky with a short neck, short thick bill and buff-brown back. They make a harsh croak when flushed or when near their nests and sometimes in flight. They are very common in India, and are usually solitary foragers but a large number of them may sometimes feed in close proximity during the dry seasons when small wetlands have a high concentration of prey. In summer they are often seen in gardens and are a common sight in my backyard.
Or what Italian say : Estate di San Martino, which is tomorrow. In the weather broadcast they use often names of saints. :)

In the mists of time, an Indian artist wanted to paint a sunset. Frustrated that he could not produce any of the colors that matched the beauty of a sunset, he asked the Great Spirit for help...

They are shrubs or small trees, which rarely reach a size of 4 m in height. In the spring, the shrub bears showy, fragrant, light pink or white flowers that grow in clusters. Flowers 1–1.5 cm in diameter. Indian hawthorn is a mainstay horticultural specimen in southern United States. It is often found in commercial as well as in private landscapes. Despite its common name, it doesn't solely grow in India. It comes from China and also grows in other parts of Asia and Australia.
Indian Harbour is situated on the eastern side of St. Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia, and is formed by Paddy’s Head Island, which is connected to the mainland by a small wooden bridge. It's been in service since 1901 and the original lighthouse keeper looked after it until it was electrified and de-staffed in 1945. His starting salary was $100 per year.
Although this lighthouse is only a short drive from Peggys Cove lighthouse it receives very few visitors.
