"As a child I spent some time scrambling over the rocks at Bandra Carter Road. Enjoyed exploring the rock pools watching hermit crabs. In those days the mangrove plants were small. Mahim Creek was very broad with huge mangrove plants. Still remember the sound of the train wheels over the creek lasted for a long time.
Lesser Flamingos. Painted this from photos taken years ago at Flamingo Festival organized by Bombay Natural History Society. Those were the days, my friends. Brushes, acrylic paint, canvas board from Camlin"
