My Early Life 🐦

-

When we relaxed and our mind brings out the pile of memories in front of us then at that time we review some of them which are our favorite too .
Here in this blog I am going to share some of my most remembered memories with our readers .
I have almost a long journey of four decades where in the corner of my mind there are some of the memories which are permanently stored and no one could erased that . When I was a child I was very shy in nature especially in front of girls but their attraction also influenced my heart too and no one knows how much . Actually it was the different story and not need to share it although it were pleased memories saved forever. 
I was the gorgeous boy when I was born as told by my mother and her eyes never failed because each mother have special abilities to explore her child better then others .
My mother was the government teacher and father was the forest department employee and I have also the elder brother who born just a year before me at Lucknow .
I was born at the Lakhimpur Kheri district of Uttar Pradesh in India on late 1980s and the date was 15th October under the Libra zodiac sign .
My religion is Sunni Islam and I have a struggled path to completed my academic qualification till graduation which interpreted meanwhile .
My primary education was commenced at St. Don Bosco College in Lakhimpur Kheri district where till 8th Class I had shared the classrooms . After that from Hardoi district of Uttar Pradesh Intermediate level education accomplished although meanwhile graduation was in completed but Certified Course in Computer and Ornithology completed successfully .
Now get back to the tender age once again when I was lived at the Quarter No.6  Forest Colony , North Block  in Lakhimpur Kheri and that locality was well wooded and enriched by the treasure of typical woodland wildlife .
That was the charm which influenced me too much that I got obsessed of it especially the large range of birds there .
From dawn to dusk the twittering of a various birds echoed there and at that time I had no guide book to trace out the birds by names individually but through the bird chart I brought from the market helped me to identified the common birds like Crow , Koel , Bulbuls , etc.
I still remembered the special issue of " Balhans" dedicated to birds of India introduced me by the more species with names and information however the uncle Late Aatma Nand Pandey  who was our neighbourhood also assisted to me very much in recognized local birds around us .
But the turning point happened when my first article in Hindi was published in the Danik Hindustan newspaper and after that my popularity index as a birdwatcher raised up and several more articles also published . In between that my articles on the observation of birds also published in English language in the Newsletter for the birdwatchers which helped me to established as a knowledgeable bird specialist . In this travel of ornithology I had came across to many globally fame ornithologist like Dr. Asad R Rahmani , Dr. Alan Kemp , Prof. G.L MacLean , Dr S.A.Hussain , Zafar futhally and many more who helped me through correspondence and personally too . Dr.Salim Ali the birdman of India was my role model into the field of bird study.
Besides birds I have fond of reading books , play cricket and listen the old Hindi songs of our beloved Late Mohammed Rafi Sahab .

Our Journey - Meter Gauge Railway

The journey of Meter gauge train used to be a world in itself. From late 80s to mid 90s when I had traveled the trains were operated with steam locomotive, then later from 1995 the train was began to operated with Ydm4 diesel locomotive  .Then two to three pairs of passenger trains and three pairs of express trains would pass through our lakhimpur railway staition which came from Bareilly, Palia and Mailani junction and reached Lucknow via Sitapur. I usually used to travel from Lakhimpur to Lucknow and return from Lucknow to Lakhimpur and it took about four hours to complete this journey as trains were often crossed due to single meter gauge railway line, which made trains had to stay at the station lying between this route . And as a crossed train passed through the station, the token is then given to the other train's loco pilot standing there and it used to move towards its destination . Between the train journey of Lucknow and Lakhimpur, it was necessary to stop every train at

My Life Story 🚵 - Part 3

In the late 80s, when I was ten years old, the birds I saw around my house I was always be curious to see them and that's how I became fond of it and established myself as a birdwatcher .   The area where I had spent my childhood was filled with a lot of species of birds and probably because of the greenery of the trees, the birds loved this area very much .  It was my pleasure to be so close to the birds but at that time it was a challenge for me to identify birds by name . But wherever there is a will, there is a way and it happened that as my hobby grew, things got easier , I remember how I got some books on birds from a library in the city and I started identifying some common birds by name. Those days I didn't need binoculars because I could see birds very close and sometimes I even took some birds in my hands but once a small bird died of suffocation in my hands, which made me very sad and this is the first time I'm telling you .  You might be surprised th

In my earlier blog I have been already told that the Forest colony in the Lakhimpur district of Uttar Pradesh was the place to where I gathered all the wonderful memories Since the early 1980s to the later 1999s . In fact the forest colony was the platform from where on those days I had learned how to live in the lap of nature and also how to delivered the reaction when the wild animals were very closer . It was almost the dusk time and in front of my quarter house there was a temple nearby the forest nursery where for the first time I had astounded because what I saw there was never saw before . More than twenty  checkered keelback  or  Asiatic water snake  ( Xenochrophis piscator )
