One Tree, Hundreds of Parrots, And Suddenly Everyone Looked Up

A girl points at a tree and says, “So many parrots,” and at first you don’t see anything. Just a dry tree, branches, night sky. Then the camera zooms in and suddenly the tree starts making sense. Every branch is full. Not leaves. Not fruits. Parrots. Dozens of them. Maybe hundreds. Sitting so still that the tree looks like it has grown green feathers.

This video was shared on NDTV’s Instagram page, and people in the comments were both amazed and completely unbothered at the same time. Some said they see this every day in Udaipur. Someone said it might be near Ratlam railway station. Someone else said this is what mornings sound like in their town. And then there were people who said, “Enjoy it now, someday someone will cut the tree.”
