Recently we created ZoomVin website: What we do in this site is - we create environmental awareness. How do we do that - We create a real world environmental niche for birds and butterflies by planting trees and flowering plants. Also by properly placing bird feeders and baths we attract birds. They are fun to watch and we capture them in our camera. Through zoomvin we want to share the world these beautiful pictures in the form of digital media. Birds:   Butterflies: Roses and Flowers: Nature: See and enjoy these books (pictures). You can also create your own environment and attract them and capture those wonderful moments.
