In a week, I'll be in Nepal!
One very personal item that I'll be carrying with me will be this set of "
Did you see me?" Nepal flora and fauna cards that Ellen handmade for me for Father's Day this year!
|
White-bellied musk deer, Whistler's warbler, Red-whiskered bulbul |
There are twenty cards. Each 4-inch by 3-inch card has a hand-drawing on the front; the back contains the animal's or plant's name. I've scanned them so I can take the laminated copies with me and keep the originals safe.
|
Tibetan snowcock, Large-billed crow, Indian Pond Heron |
I've reproduced my "
Did you see me?" cards here for you. I put the card's front and back side by side.
I think my favorite is the
White-bellied musk deer.
|
Himalayan bulbul, Rufous sibia, Steppe Eagle |
These cards are one of many special things I'll be carrying with me - the well-wishes and messages of support, I will carry in my mind and in my heart.
|
Soapnut, Chinese rhubarb |
I will report - hopefully with photographs - a list of the critters and plants I saw.
|
Neem, English walnut, Fragrant wintergreen |
|
Indian gooseberry, Himalayan mayapple, Indian madder |
Aren't these just awesome?
OK, fourth and final time to try and comment. :-)
