Rock Bunting the Stone Boy of the Himalayas, a master of disguise carved from the mountains themselves!

The Rock Bunting is a beautiful mountain bird often found among rocky slopes, cliffs, scrublands, and Himalayan foothills. Its plumage is a striking blend of chestnut, grey, black, and white, highlighted by a distinctive facial pattern and finely streaked feathers. These earthy colors provide exceptional camouflage, allowing it to blend seamlessly with rocks and dry landscapes, helping it avoid predators. The Rock Bunting feeds on seeds, grains, berries, and insects, foraging mostly on the ground. Calm yet alert, it is well adapted to rugged environments. Often overlooked against the stones it inhabits, this resilient bird is a true master of survival and one of the Himalayas' most remarkable hidden treasures. 🐦⛰️✨🌿

I roar in summer,
but fall silent in winter.

When Spiti slips below zero,
I turn into a cathedral of ice —cliffs frozen mid-fall,
time paused between December and February.

Remote. Serene. Starkly beautiful.
Trekkers stop. Cameras freeze.
The Himalayas hold their breath.

I’m Spiti’s winter wonder —
Guess my name?

India’s big dams & hydro projects are drowning in corruption, not just water. From Teesta 3 in Sikkim to Shongtong Karcham Hydroelectric Project, 2025 has exposed a pattern: corruption, cost overruns, and safety failures. @Indian_Rivers @I_love_himachal #HimachalPradesh 🧵

Comet Lemmon seen over the Grand Teton 2 nights ago. It was visible to the naked eye but you definitely need dark skies

Kinnaur Kailash Peak, adorned by cascading monsoon clouds. The monsoon has extended unusually long this year—the region has never witnessed such high rainfall in its history. Rains have even continued well into early October.

⚠️ Travel Alert: Kinnaur is currently cut off from the rest of the world. National Highway 5 is blocked at Nathpa Jhulla and Nigulsari.

I need your help.
Waste is again being dumped into the River Sutlej. The same story.
The responsible party was fined earlier — but nothing has changed.

After years of cleanup drives, meetings, and speaking up, I feel helpless.
Help me writing a later to NGT !
