I had never seen a Swallow before this spring. They are absolutely mesmerizing birds. They are compact, agile,Continue reading “Swallow Fields”

The Beautiful Swamp
There is a swampy area in the park I go to for my daily walks. The spring migration has brought in many beautiful and interesting species. This post will show case some of the bird life I have seen in this habitat so far! We will start with the Heron family. I had a ravineContinue reading “The Beautiful Swamp”
The Swan’s Lake
I know, the title is cheesy, but I couldn’t help it! In March a lot of Swans came to the Lake. I love watching them graciously floating across the gentle water, like a soft fluffy cloud against a blue sky. March was also the beginning of breeding season in the bird kingdom. It has beenContinue reading “The Swan’s Lake”
Who Whoo
A few weeks ago, my husband and I were wondering through the forest, when he suddenly whispered my name “Jasmin!” I turned around and he quietly and slowly told me there was an owl in the tree. My initial response, “are you joking?” He was not joking. It was actually a very frightening experience! ThisContinue reading “Who Whoo”

My Snowy Owl Obsession
The snowy owl has been a regular feature on my blog- when I post about birds. Since December, this female owl was regularly seen perched in the middle of the docks, where she was safe. I wanted to see her do more than sitting on the docks, and this meant I had to go atContinue reading “My Snowy Owl Obsession”
Part 4 – Thailand & Japan
Welcome to Thailand! We first landed in Bangkok and had a connecting flight to Chiang Mai. Thailand has so much diverse terrain to offer! Beaches in the south, jungles in the north and a big bustling city in the middle (sort of). This was our first “real” holiday after three years of saving up andContinue reading “Part 4 – Thailand & Japan”
Part 3 – Jaipur, Rajasthan
If architecture, history, palaces and textiles appeal to you, then you’ll enjoy Jaipur! Jaipur, also known as the pink city, is definitely a place for tourists. Our short time in this city was spent doing the main touristy things. We booked some tours through airbnb experience. The first tour we did took us around theContinue reading “Part 3 – Jaipur, Rajasthan”
