Naturalist interested in flowering plants and insects, usually Lepidoptera. Most of my observations are recorded in and around our house in Mumbai suburb. I frequently visit city gardens, playgrounds and nurseries to document local flora and fauna, with photos taken from my mobile camera.

I am always looking to improve my identification skills and utilize a lot of background information/Ai tools/Google lens/Web based resources.

I have a masters degree in Biotechnology and associated work experience in the field of Cancer research.
