Mouse "Thumri" with her just born litter.
Normal "Pest Mice"(Friday 21-9-2013)
This mouse was spotted outside my toilet , sitting on the ledge. I have installed a wire-fence to prevent rats from entering my flat on the 5th floor. These rats climb up through the drain pipes and have a tendency to enter houses through the open window ledges.
Saturday(30-8-2014):-The "RAT" of Legian street in Kuta(Bali).
Rats are very bold and have colonized all parts of the globe. While touring Indonesia came across this bold rat on Legian street, least bothered about the "Human Photographer" .In Case of a "Atomic Devastation" it has been proved that rats and cockroaches would survive but not humans !.Now you know the reasons for the succcess of the longest running play "THE MOUSETRAP".
Saturday(2-5- 2015) "BANDICOOTS OF MAHALAXMI RACECOURSE IN MUMBAI.
ARE YOU IN THE "Rat Race" ? :- Had been to the Mahalakshmi racecourse to watch a satirical Hindi play titled "Taj Mahal Ka Tender".This was the first time that the "Paddock" of the racecourse was converted to a makeshift open-air theatre for a week long festival of plays. Spotted this huge rat during a stroll on the premises. This rat was as large as a small cat and seems to have been diseased or sick. It was running aimlessly in the open near the racecourse car park. Millions of rupees are spent on "PEST CONTROL" and yet rats thrive all over the World.No wonder the play the "THE MOUSE TRAP" is the longest running play in English theatre.

Rats at Dharamatala in Calcutta(1998.
In Dharamtala there is a small part of a garden that is fenced and rats fed by people.This "Rat garden' in Dharamatala is akin to the numerous Kabootarkhana's of Mumbai, only difference, instead of pigeons it is rats that are fed. A rare sight for tourists to calcutta.
Mouse "Gale" with her litter.
I could have started a "MICE BREEDING FARM" in my small flat in Mumbai due to the prolific breeding of "Thumri" and "Gale' with stud mouse "Tokko".
