I fully agreed to the saying that “Nobody can do everything, but everyone can do something”. Rajasthan's summer has been hunting down inhabitants of the city with its merciless and scorching heat. Mercury has been rising alarmingly and we see less hope of respite to soothe the heat. The joy of drinking cold chilled water in this summer is incomparable to any flirting taste of food.

We, who know how to enjoy and be glad of such natural respite like water, carry the responsibility of sharing it with our co-inhabitants on the Planet. Our small chirping friends are being hunted down by the heat everywhere and their survival is being threatened by lack of water resource in the city. Except for some birding areas in and around us, birds that dare fly beyond the border have paid the price of visiting us.

By preparing Little water bowls of mud and leaving a bowl of water outside our homes can go a long way in quenching the thirst of the birds in this harsh summer. It’s not so difficult to do but can mean so much for our little feathered friends.
