During my stay at Varanasi, I had engaged a boat to have a view of the river Ganga The boatman was kind and very patient enough to take me to every place near the river and explained me everything While the boatman was riding the boat I suddenly heard the sound...''ah.ah.ah.aah..' I looked around to see where the sounds were coming from The boatman asked me to look at a boat nearby. There were some people sitting in the boat and they were making these sounds. There were number of birds flocking around the boat. The boatman told me that the people in that boat are feeding the birds throwing some foodstuff into the water and making the sound The birds are catching that sound and are gathering there to catch their foodstuff He also informed me that these birds come from Australia every year during the water and will go back after the winter is over. I really enjoyed the scene I purchased 4 packets of food stuff and threw the stuff intot the water while my colleague was calling them. I gave some stuff to the boatman also . When the birds gathered around my boat I took a nice picture of it. How is this friends?
