Nature Watch

This is the diary of a nature lover patterned after the traditional Baramasi of Indian poets. It tells you of trees, flowers, fruits, birds, snakes, insects and animals to be seen during the twelve months of the year. It also tells of the many fairs and festivals celebrated in the country, how clouds are formed and what their shapes and movements mean, why hailstorms come in spring and early summer and not in winter, how birds communicate with each other and why their calls vary with the seasons. With the descriptions of nature are included poems on natural phenomena by poets like Kalidasa, Guru Nanak, Meer Taqi Meer, Ghalib, Akbar Illahabadi, Rabindranath Tagore, Rudyard Kipling and many others.
