Spent the last weekend in the salubrious environs of Karl Kobel Institute at Anaikatti, Coimbatore, The occasion was the Annual CME of the Indian Psychiatric Society, South Zone. I chose to talk on an issue that often doesn't get the attention it deserves in professional circles...the topic of Professional Burnout. I titled the presentations as Keeping The Flame Alive...Perspectives on Professional Burnout and ended it up emphasizing as to how each one of us has to strive to develop strategies of combating it by various measures that can bring a sense of joy and meaning to our everyday lives.It is birding amongst other interest of mine, which keeps the burnout at bay...or so I hope!
So not surprisingly, we ventured into the verdant landscape of Anaikatti one morning in the company of Lakshminarayanan, a young, talented wild life enthusiast who is doing interesting work with tigers. Just a few kilometers away from the institute we chanced upon a pair of BlueWinged Parakeets. I have posted these lovely avians in the Feathered Beauties section of the photographs. There were other wonderful sightings too, notably that of Blue Winged Malkhoa. Altogether a lovely sojourn...thanks Lakshmi!
