Here I am again showing photos of a party!  Winter in Bangladesh means winter picnics and it must also mean things like jig-saw puzzle parties!  Thanks so  much for hosting, Akash and Nila!  It was a fun evening with a spaghetti supper as well.  I arrived at 3 and left at 10 pm.  Dustin came around 4 and hung around as long as I did. It looks like Diane gets featured at this party also.  This is the nice kind of winter with highs in the 70’s!

After 7 hours with 5-7 people working on this 1,000 piece puzzle!.

I saw a reflection of the sun in a window of a nearby hospital so I grabbed my camera and raced for our rooftop (1 flight of stairs).  This is the scene I saw.

If you don’t want to miss a shot always have your camera handy to save precious time.

It was a pleasure to go birding with Ronald Halder, James Pender, and a professor from the university.  I also verified the bird in the book Ronald gave me, A Photographic Guide to BIRDS OF BANGLADESH.
