ThursdayTreeLove -128

This week I went to work four days in a row after two long years. It felt different and good. I was tired at the end of each day but I still liked being around my peers and work with folks around. Working from home is comfortable and caters to the lazy me but being in the office, brings out a lot good too.

On the way to work, I spotted that our trees in Bangalore are now full of these red flowers. These are the blooms of the Gulmohar tree also commonly known as Royal Poinciana, Flamboyant, Flame of the Forest, Krishnachura and Peacock flower. This click was from a moving vehicle but made me happy. Summer is here.

Thursday Tree love is a photo feature hosted on this blog on every 2nd and 4th Thursday of a month. The next edition will go live on April 28, 2022. If you would like to play along, post a picture of a tree on your blog, tell me where did you spot the tree and link it back to this post.

If you don’t see the pingback, please leave a link to your post in my comments section. Please make sure that your post’s link is showing up on this latest edition. I will link your posts on my blog in the next edition and spread some love. Let’s come together to appreciate the beautiful nature around us.

  7. I must say I don’t envy you. The Bangalore traffic must be back to peak horribility. It is often very bad here, but my own commute is not as bad as it could have been. That tree is a great compensation. One of things I love about summer is these flowers.

    Fire and forest

  9. I haven’t seen any Gulmohar tree in my city but I remember full bloomed tree at my native place .
    I wish that working people should go to their work place as before . Work from home is a boring business. Though I agree safety is important. As a teacher till I don’t have eye contact & physical presence of my students , it seems to me i am unable to teach them …very difficult. Place ,people, peers , atmosphere mean a lot. Once you retire …you will feel the difference.
