Onathumbigal... The dragonflies that herald the Onam festival. They migrate with the monsoon winds, arriving from sub Saharan Africa on what is called the Somali jet, a low level monsoon current. They lay their eggs on arrival in Kerala, and the emergence of young dragonflies after 45 days coincides with the Onam festival.

Tomorrow is Attukkal Pongala, a festival attracting thousands of devotees to the Attukkal Bhagavathy temple in Kerala.

Thousands of women gather and prepare the sweet rice dish to offer to the Goddess.

In the days leading up, the story of the Goddess slaying the Pandyan king, in the form of Kannagi, is retold.
