A Chinese White Wagtail (Motacilla alba leucopsis) captured in a typical pose right after the sun has set on a stream side near Kathmandu, Nepal. White Wagtails are very common during the winter months in the Kathmandu valley and can be found at streams, rivers, and on flooded fields.
The Chinese type leucopsis is probably the most commonly found subspecies, but there are at least six other types that occur. Juvenile birds and hybrids can be particularly hard to categorize. #birdersnightmare

Portable Thangkas
Thangkas, portable religious paintings on cloth, are part of a larger array of efficacious religious art that also includes murals, sculpture, and other portable objects. Such works served as didactic devices and aided devotees in their religious practice. The rich iconography of Buddha and Buddhist deities and the colorful images make thangkas fascinating objects to study.

MH-14 / BT 2903
Kavathe Mahankal depot.
Name of Program: Housing reconstruction program after Gorkha Earthquake
Location: Sindhupalchowk district, Mahankal-9, Nepal
Building Typology: Load Bearing stone masonry in mud mortar
Supported by: HELVETAS
Stone in mud buildings are constructed using dressed or undressed stones available at the site with mud mortar. The structural walls are the main load-bearing component of the building. The walls are usually 450-650 mm. thick. Such thick walls are generally constructed in multiple wythes with the filler material (small pieces of stones) between the walls. The floor system is the flexible type of mud flooring on bamboo or timber joists. The roof system is also flexible type with CGI sheets or tiles over timber rafters.
Nepal suffered a massive loss of lives and property on Saturday 25 April 2015, when the devastating magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck Nepal. Subsequent aftershocks, including one of magnitude 7.3 near the Chinese border on 12 May, produced additional losses of life and property.
The earthquake triggered avalanches on Mount Everest and in the Langtang valley. Villages were flattened and people were made homeless across 31 districts, with 14 districts suffering the highest impact. Infrastructure was damaged throughout the earthquake zone. Historic neighborhoods and heritage sites were destroyed in the Kathmandu Valley.
As a result of the earthquake, 8,790 people died and more than 22,300 people were injured. Assessments showed that at least 498,852 private houses and 2,656 government buildings were destroyed. Another 256,697 private houses and 3,622 government buildings were partially damaged. In addition, 19,000 classrooms were destroyed and 11,000 damaged.
The earthquake affected manufacturing, production, and trade in agriculture as well as tourism and other areas of the service sector, thereby weakening the national economy. Economic growth fell in 2015 and has picked up slowly 2016. Once fully underway, reconstruction should contribute to economic growth in the coming years.
According to initial estimates arrived at during the Post-Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA), NPR 669 billion would be required to reconstruct damaged properties and infrastructure and to support recovery in affected sectors of the economy.
The government was providing 300 hundred thousand grant for Private housing reconstruction & 100 hundred thousand grant for retrofitting of the private house damaged by earthquake
