   seeds. I will try to upload the picture of the seeds tomorrow. The
   climber in the picture is almost bare of leaves, whereas the one at my

   The 2 flowerbuds behind the open flower have a completely different

   flower.
   I think the photo shows both Ipomoea obscura and Rivae

 Crucifer from Kashmir for ID, grown in Botanical Garden near Cheshmashahi
 in Srinagar, photographed on June 26, 2010. Appears to be some species of
 Iberis but not able to place as the long narrow linear-spatulate leaves are
 distinctive.

 This develops into a reddish fruit and is in my opinion much more

Dear Dipak Bhai,
 Importance of Trees in Conservation of Birds- One day seminar attended in
 Baroda by J.K. Tiwari , S.N. Varu. Nilendu Thakkar and Guide Reserchers Bhuj

 J.K. Tiwari presented a paper - promoting bird conservation by large scale
 tree plantation.

 One day seminar was held on 13 th Sept 2009 at M.S. University Baroda -
 The seminar was organised by the Bird Conservation Society of Gujarat (BCSG)
 in support with the Department of Zoology, Dr. Geeta padate and Dr. Devkar
 extended full help in the Seminar.

 Dr. Bakul Trivedi, Dr. B.M. Parasharya of BCSG also presented their work
 in the seminar.
 GUIDE -Reserchers presented a poster in the seminar -on Gando Baval and
 birds in Banni.
  Nilendu Thakkar of Anjar had presented a poster on importance of Mangrove
 (Cheriya ) in conservation of birds.

 The Out come of this one day seminar (mosly attended by you
 Scientist/students =300 people) was to grow more and more native trees to
 support the birdlife and to make the area around us livable, green and
 pollution free.

 Trees like Piloodi. Liyar, Goras Amli, Kerad, Deso Baval, Gorad, Khati
 Amli, Neem, vad, etc. not only make the surrounding green, provide us
 Oxygen, shade, but provide the food to birds.

 Many people are planting trees, many industries are doing plantation but
 which species and where to plant is important. Aims of everybody is good.
 Let us increase  numbers of Tree planters so that the enemies of trees get
 defeated.

 J.K. tiwari
