Active Squirrel and Parks in India

This happened in Regent’s Park, London closer to Baker Street tube station and closer to York gate near Madame Tussauds. I went to the park for first time on a saturday before visiting madame tussauds and i saw a அணில்  coming towards me. I was eager to take the photograph but at the same time i had nothing to give to it. Somehow the squirrel got to know this and quickly ran away with disappoinment. Even i got disappointed because i have nothing to give to it and i have not taken the photograph. Apart from this squirrel there were lot of birds (dows, ‘narais’ (நாரைகள் ), ducks etc etc). The people there were giving small pieces of white breads to them. I was simply photographing them on the first day.

Next day i went there hoping to see the squirrel again and to give breads to the birds there. Why i was so curious about the squirrel was it was 2-3 times than our அணில் and it has no ராமர் கோடுகள் (the three golden/black lines on the back of the indian squirrel). Morever it was very active. That squirrel came very close to me, saw me for two minutes and then went back. This rose the curiosity inside me.

Luckily i saw a nice old gentlmen giving peanuts to the a squirrel in a place which was very close to the place where i saw it before. I dont know it was the same one or not but it also behaved the same way. They are responding to the human, moving very close to human and on top of all these, they are very much active.

Below are the videos of the squirrel.

Some photographs of it:

Ok coming to india, there is no such park here in india (Trichy/Chennai/Bangalore ). Though bangalore is a exception, it also even lacks of proper water source inside the parks. Though the lalbagh has in it, it lacks the birds. Though the birds are there, indians are known not having மனச்சாட்சி towards the environment and through the plastics inside the parks, litter inside the parks, sleeping inside the parks etc etc. If bangalore is like this, in chennai and trichy, they are even worser. No parks. Nothing. Only concrete jungle they are. Chennaities dont tell me about parks like panagal park etc etc. Only very recently hoardings around it have been removed. In trichy it is even worser. There is absolutely zero park in the city. Shame on it trichians !

In chennai and trichy, even though if any free lands are there, they will make a board “ABC Nagar”…”XYZ Nagar” and try to advertise like 5 km from IT park (u need to ask where is IT Park), 10 Mintues drive to international city bla bla.

With all the agricultural mastery we have, why we public and government are not even bothered about building lakes and parks in our city and its near by? Kadavule En Nattai Kappatru !
