As a child I used to observe lot of greenery everwhere but now I hardly find any greenery.As a child I used to wake up at the smirching of birds and that smirching used to be like music to me.As a child I was astonished when my elder sister told me it is the way birds communicate with one another and she proved her point. One day birds were making a lot of noise and my sister told me that they are making this noise because there a snake nearby,so they are communicating with one another the presence of the snake.I asked my sister why the birds are afraid of snakes then she told me that snakes will eat the eggs of birds.To my astonishment I found a snake nearby and that snake was going on the branches of a tree nearby.As a child I was annoyed and I could not believe what I have seen.I was startled by the keen observation of nature by my elder sister. Now also my sister observes the changes in nature very keenly.
