Spot the train
That is a local train, the lifeline of Mumbai, that runs from Churchgate in South Mumbai to Virar in North Mumbai and on the way it divides the city into East and West. This side of the train is East and the other side is West. It is passing through Khar in this picture.

Super Worm Equinox Moon
The Super Worm Equinox Moon in the Bandra sky. 'Super' because it is closest to Earth in its monthly orbit hence will appear bigger and brighter. 'Worm' because this is the time the ground starts getting warmer and the worms appear (in traditional Red Indian lore) and 'Equinox' as it is the Spring Equinox on this day.

A dying breed
A rare instance of a 'Vasudev' seen in Bandra east.
'Vasudev' are people believed to be incarnation of Lord Krishna. Bedecked in the distinctive headgear of peacock feathers, performers sing Vasudev songs and with nimble, delicate dance steps, whirl around presenting anecdotes from Lord Krishna's life in exchange for alms. They sing soothing, melodious notes through the villages in the morning time. Historically they belong to the Satvata tribe

Bandra birds
A crow that is generally larger than the House Crow, with a relatively long daggerlike bill that is curved on the top. Entirely black with a variable amount of glossiness, they are primarily scavengers that feed on carrion, leftover food from humans, and also steal food from other birds. Their call is more raucous and harsher than the House Crow.
