The Nest


Recently I cannot open the window, because a pigeon (or a kind of bird like pigeon, named Yakarim in Persian) has nestled at the margin of that, and she lies over her two eggs (another egg has been just added newly).
I am not eager to disturb my new neighbor!

The Sparrow and Cherry Blooms

There is a sparrow between cherry blooms. I wanted to take a photo from it; afterward, It was hard to find the bird; is it visible for you?!

The Land of Fire

The last 3 Wednesdays’ evenings of solar year is called “Od Günü Axşamı” or “Çərşəmbə Axşamı” in Turkish, and “Chaharshanbeh Souri” in Persian. Folkloric ceremonies of these days recently have been replaced by too dangerous fireworks (Or street cracking) in Tehran! That was not endurable for me! Indeed, I escaped from Tehran this week. Old traditions as jumping over the fire are already being saved in Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan’s other name is “Odlar Yurdu” means “The Land of Fire”.


Happy new year, happy ‘Novrouz’ holidays, happy ‘Argana Gun Bayramı’.

The Long Sleeve T-Shirt!!

It is 3 days to upcoming spring and Solar Hijri New Year (1387). Tehran clothing markets are very busy. I saw these shirts yesterday. ‘T-shirt’ is an imported word from English, in Persian, but there has been written a label in Persian, meaning ‘Long sleeve T-shirts’!!



Oh! That is not funny completely! Because of exception in Wikipedia:
T-shirt is a shirt, with … mostly (but not necessarily) short sleeves….
