Madhuban's Spring Festival
Champak|February Second 2023
Spring had arrived in Madhuban and led to a change of weather in the jungle. It was pleasant. The plants and trees were thriving.

Madhuban's Spring Festival

Various flowers had grown on their branches. Their colourful petals attracted bumble bees and honey bees, busy flying from one flower to another, collecting the nectar.

A few birds that had migrated to different forests because of the cold weather started returning. Their sweet chirping echoed in all directions and enhanced the beauty of the season.

The animals that had hibernated during the winter had come out of their hideouts and were roaming around freely in the forest. The small creatures that gave birth in the winter and hid indoors had grown up and started playing as soon as spring arrived.

 

As the days were getting slightly longer and the sun was shining brighter, warmth spread in the forest. Since the plants and trees were growing, bearing fruits and flowers, the forest creatures had enough food to eat, and the jungle became alive with the happy sounds of animals and birds. Everyone was pleased to enjoy this special season.

During this time, the king of the jungle, Leo lion, called a meeting. It was announced that all the animals would celebrate the arrival of spring together, and there would be a big party.
