Parrot and squirrel in Hampi

I've capture it on June 2006 during my visit of Hampi, Karnataka, India, which was one of the most beautiful place I've seen in my life. I think the parrot only wanted to be left alone... and 'regretted' it after that. The scenery was beautiful from there, directly to the Zenana enclosure, very close of Lotus Mahal. You can see it here (where Maruthu Pandian have a nice capture) or here (one of so many nice photos of Jol Laurijsen) or take a 360 degrees tour around. May be I'll post sometime, other pictures from there.


If you'll have the occasion to be somewhere close of it, please don't miss it.

Schmap Salzburg Sixth Edition

A photo which I took during my visit of Salzburg, two years ago, has been selected for inclusion in the newly released sixth edition of Schmap Salzburg Guide:

I'm really pleased. The museum Haus der Natur is great. Don't miss it if you'll visit sometime Salzburg. Can somebody tell me the latin scientific name of it ?
