A Gathering of colorful parrots at Jurong Bird Park in Singapore.
Hope is the thing with feathers
that perches the soul
and sings the tune without the words
and never stops at all
~ Emily Dickinson
Pink flamingoes gather for their daily meet
See how the sacred old flamingoes come,
Painting with shadow all the marble steps:
Aged and wise, they seek their wonted perches
Within the temple, devious walking, made
To wander by their melancholy minds.
~ William Butler Yeats
People gather for the annual fair at Pushkar, Rajasthan, India.
The Fair is an annual five-day camel and livestock fair held in the town of Pushkar in the state of Rajasthan, India. It is one of the world’s largest camel fairs. Besides, the buying and selling of livestock, it has become an important tourist attraction.
Thousands throng to the banks of the Pushkar Lake where the fair takes place. Men buy and sell their livestock, which includes camels, cows, sheep and goats. The women visit the stalls, full of bracelets, clothes, textiles and fabrics.
The festival begins with a camel race, music, songs and exhibitions to follow.
People gather to pray at Golden Temple in Amritsar, Punjab, India. The Golden temple or the Harimandir Sahib is considered holy by Sikhs. The holiest text of Sikhism, the Guru Granth Sahib, is present inside the gurdwara. It’s a place of worship for men and women from all walks of life and all religions to come and worship God equally.
