…and get soaked in the Sun!

I’m such a chameleon. I never get bored- Natalie Imbroglia

Now this gentleman (or a …woman!?) clinging to the bloom is getting Vitamin D in abundance and evidently enjoying so much so that he/she is simply unwilling to move even after I have made some throat-clearing sound while taking out my handphone.

Normally, they would move places if they anticipate any disruption in their state of being and surroundings.

By the way, I am experiencing a bright, sunny, yet short-lived spring here in and around Delhi NCR. Everywhere I look around, there’s colors and vibrance wherever I set my gaze. Before the sapping and long-lasting summer takes me in its grilling garb, I am enjoying every bit of it, trying to be outside to get soaked in the sun as much as possible.

However, I anticipate that he/she must be wondering why should only homo sapiens

# transform with each role?

# should have all the fun!?!

Guess David (our in-house herpetolgist!) must be having all the answers…:)! Whatsay?
