  birds of the indian subcontinent book: Life Cycle of Birds Bhagat Singh, 2009 Birds are the most fascinating creatures on our earth. They have figured prominently in human art and literature, since time immemorial. But more recently, bird-watching has become a widespread favourite pastime, and even a serious occupation in most of the countries. As a result, many popular books on birds have appeared, but most of these concentrate on the external appearance of the birds and are devoted to a description of the species that are found in a particular region of the world. In the present volume, birds are not treated as mere museum specimens or subjects, simply to be identified and categorized, but they have been portrayed and presented as living creatures. 'Life Cycle of Birds' is, therefore, the first earnest endeavour of its kind to bring out a comprehensive volume showing the birdlife in its various growing phases right from the stage of nest-building to the successful departure of the young through clear, crisp and sharp colour photographs, which depict these wonderful winged creatures in their natural habitats and true-to-life postures.

  birds of the indian subcontinent book: Indica Pranay G. Lal, 2016 Did you know that the exquisite caves of Ellora were hewn from rock formed in the greatest lava floods the world has known-eruptions so enormous that they may well have obliterated dinosaurs? Or that Bengaluru owes its unique climate to a tectonic event that took place 88 million years ago? That the Ganga and Brahmaputra sequester nearly 20 per cent of global carbon, and their sediments over millions of years have etched submarine canyons in the Bay of Bengal that are larger than the Grand Canyon?Ever heard of Rajasaurus, an Indian dinosaur which was perhaps more ferocious than T rex? Many such amazing facts and discoveries-from 70-million-year-old crocodile eggs in Mumbai to the nesting ground of dinosaurs near Ahmedabad-are a part of Indica: A Deep Natural History of the Indian Subcontinent. Researching across wide-ranging scientific disciplines and travelling with scientists all over the country, biochemist Pranay Lal has woven together the first compelling narrative of India's deep natural history filled with fierce reptiles, fantastic dinosaurs, gargantuan mammals and amazing plants. This story, which includes a rare collection of images, illustrations and maps, starts at the very beginning-from the time when a galactic swirl of dust coalesced to become our life-giving planet-and ends with the arrival of our ancestors on the banks of the Indus. Pranay Lal tells this story with verve, lucidity and an infectious enthusiasm that comes from his deep, abiding love of nature.
