I came across this captivating photograph printed in Dawn a couple of days back. Left me in awe for few seconds.

Even the crows know that they can quench their thirst turn by turn; which is probably in their best interest. Unlike their human friends.

Errr… I don’t want to make this amazing capture political but the term “turn by turn” reminds me of our very own Senator Asif Ali Zardari and Mian Nawaz Sharif. An ex-senator who is so heartly called one even these days by PTV; and an ex-PM who is trying hard to enter the privileged class of parliamentarians. Do you think they are back for any good or are they just quenching their thirst too, on our money, turn by turn?

As a commentor on Islamabad Metblog aptly mentioned, “And please remember no matter how much you launder, clean and wash a leopard; his spots will never change.

Don’t let your hopes go sky-high. Hydrate yourself enough.

‘coz in the end, “Sab Maaaya Hay

    You need to improve on the quality of your post. I do not find anything in this picture which I do not expect of animals. They definitely are at a higher degree of intelligence then humans, living in complete harmony with nature and living “ green” , which we are just beginning to learn, for millions of years.
    “I think I could turn and live with animals, they are so placid and self-contained, I stand and look at them long and long. They do not sweat and whine about their condition, they do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins, they do not make me sick discussing their duty to God, not one is dissatisfied, not one is demented with the mania of owning things, not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that lived thousands of years ago, Not one is respectable or unhappy over the whole earth. “ W. Whitman

    Dear Ms Asma,
    I used the term “migrated American crows” as a metphor.
    Now you can put 2 and 2 together. :)

    Zak The country wont do any progress until we dare to take any actions too :\

    Eidee man I compared them all alike in response to Zaka’s comment =)

    ShahidnUSA American crows are intelligent? Because they are “Americans” or any other reason?

    Ahmed Ali See the ones pictured above … they seem to be intelligent, No =)
