Hindu temples
These may also be called by other names, including mandir or mandira, koil or kovil, devasthana and devalaya, depending on region and language.
A Hindu temple can be a separate structure or a part of a building. A feature of most temples is the presence of murtis of the Hindu deity to whom the temple is dedicated. They are usually dedicated to one primary deity, called the presiding deity, and other subordinate deities associated with the main deity. However, some temples are dedicated to several deities, and some have symbols instead of a murti.
The Gopuram of temples, in south India, are adorned with icons depicting a particular story surrounding the temple's deity. Click Here Fore Countinu...

Baby Chipmunk Hanging from a Berry Bush Branch in the Fall season Feeding on Raspberries. A week or so before I saw our cats after something on the porch. I thought it was a mouse at first. But it was a baby chipmunk. I caught it and carried it in my hand to show my little boys and girl. I wanted to keep it but thought it would not be right. So I took it across the street and let it go in the bushes. My little girl petted this chipmunk for a minute before it took off. We had to chase the cats away cause they wated to get it.
