Just a bit over 24 hours ago was on a mixed forest mountain trail.
The opposite of modern dystopia - no jostling, quiet, can't say cool but not boiling hot either. Plenty of - flowers & some fruting plants; arthropods (butterflies, bees, beetles, cockroaches, spiders etc) ; & birds singing, calling, foraging silently, some harassed by baby duties. & Even the call of a less seen / heard Grey-bellied Tesia.

Birding, & eating what the birds eat
A very nice bird walk in a village near Mukteshwar.
Highlights many - the special one was the song of a Grey-bellied Tesia.
End of main walk break consisted of peaches (cultivated) and the round fruit of wild Myrica esculenta, locally Kaaphal.
The Indian Cuckoo sings Kaaphal Paako..., Kaaphal Pakiyo. (& not surprisingly the local name is simply "Kaphaal Paako")

Over the past week I traveled over some side roads - day time & even later in the nights. Narrow but good road, low traffic, & very kind people.
Stopped a few times to get photos or just take a break. Almost always had friendly chats with people &. almost always they just handed me large delicious Peaches. Unbidden.
In one case a man gave me the fruit from under an almost closed shutter.

🕷️😊 Researchers in #Uttarakhand, #India, spotted a spider resembling #Hawaii’s happy-face #spider during ant #biodiversity work.
#DNA confirmed it was a new species, *Theridion himalayana*, with distinct evolutionary origins. Both species evolved their patterns independently.

Barberry flower, locally called Kilmoda (apochryphally the origins of the name for Almora town)
Flowers are edible, along with the berries as well.
Berberis spp.

Most of my Himalayan Bird Count birding was in a Cold Temperate Forest with Oaks, Horse Chestnut, Indian Laurel, Rhododendrons, .
The central focus was around Mesar Kund , a forest pond.
The correct local name is Mesar Kund, long story about the that I will share soon. But this name is being changed to suit dominant cultural trends.

9th May 26 was Endemic Bird day & also Himalayan Bird Count Day
Normally our group would have gone crazy - with birding events in 3 or 4 locations. This year subdued - people on assignment & in different locations. So took the opportunity to slow walk through a village forest
