My Brother's Dog

I went back to Sarikei old home last month, my brother told me that the dog had gone, nowhere to be found. 
Either he was kidnapped or killed and buried hastily after knocked down by a vehicle. He had been limping since two months ago, probably also knocked down by vehicle too. He was just eight months old.
Condolence, his baby cuteness is remembered.

Reddish Brown Dragonfly

But I am not afraid of hot sunlight!
This dragonfly seems to enjoy resting on a grass under the sun. How long can it stand the heat ?

Golden Dragonfly

Even the dragonfly finds difficulty to rest on the plants under hot sun, how the plants can withstand the heat for the whole day?
This dragonfly finds resting on the wall away from direct sunlight is more comfortable.

Asystasia chelonoides

The plant can be very attractive when dozens of flowers open up at the same time. These small violet flowers would move in the wind, as if trying to greet you!

Red Daisy Flower

I  could not recall when did I spread the seeds in front of the hill pavilion in the farm. But the appearance of the red flower among the tall grass certainly is pleasing. 

Hot Sun and the Myna

The bird has to hide on the other side of the roof in order to avoid hot sun, smart of it ! 
Yesterday, I climbed onto the roof, the roof tiles were so hot that, I have to run and later used a pair of slippers to prevent my skin got burnt! I wonder whether the thick skin of the bird feet can feel it.

Pomelo Tree and the Salt

My Pomelo tree is not sweet at all, slightly bitter, sour but juicy. My auntie says by feeding the tree with salt, the fruits will become sweet. What is the chemistry behind such treatment, I wonder?
Salt is just sodium chloride, I have not heard Pomelo trees growing well at the sea side subject to tide. It only grows well at the hilly land. Are we inducing the plant to change chemical reactions by causing it to suffer, as salt can be harmful to many living cells?

Let's wait for the next batch of Pomelo fruits.
