When I said I expected less than 10 answers to y'day's QOTD I didn't mean 0! And since Sujasha mentioned the correct answer, I mention her name here:)
Today's question is a much simpler one. The hint I will give is that it's contextual and it's very easy to get into wrong tracks, please do not! Go ahead and connect.
Added hint! This is a pure 'lateral thinking' question. Please think way out of the box!
Please leave your answers as comments. They are moderated and will be published along with the correct answer.
And the correct answer is:
They are all vahanas/mounts/vehicles of Goddess Durga & her children
Pictures were as follows:
Top left - Owl (Hedwig from Harry Potter) - Goddess Lakshmi
Top right - Swan (from the movie The Swan Princess) - Goddess Saraswati
Bottom right - Peacock (NBC's peacock logo) - Lord Kartik
Bottom left - Rat/Mouse (Mickey Mouse) - Lord Ganesha
Centre - Lion (Simba from Lion King) - Goddess Durga

I loved this Question. These are the "vahanas" of Goddess Durga and her 4 children. Owl - Lakshmi, Swan - Saraswati, Mouse - Ganesha, Peacock - Karthik and Lion - Devi Durga herself. Happy Pujas
All animals/birds in d picture (peacock, lion, mouse, swan (4m swan pricess)& owl) are vahanas of certain Hindu Gods.
Durga Puja!
all the bahons :D
good one!
Vaahans of Devi Durga and her retinue. Happy Pujas to all!

I must say I am delighted that QOTD is back. I can now pretend that the time I am NOT doing what I am supposed to be doing I am at least trying to think and get a reasonable guess for QOTD.
I would still like you to put some more sport related question.
Okay , my customary one para plus rambling is done .. here is my guess ..
I cant hit the nail on the head but ..
a)Walt Disney Co. (Some of those characters are Disney , Mortimer/Micky Mouse , the young lion in lion king (?)
b) No idea about Harry Potter's owl .. but I think its called Hedgewick / Hedgewig
c)CNBC (?) .. I know Walt Disney made an offer for Marvel (Aladdin is a marvel character) .. Were they the first to report this news??
d)Why Buena Vista / Aladdin is blanked , I cant say.
e)There is a character / writer in the Marvel Universe named Mortimer (Is this even relevant)?
Some feedback about whether I am rabmling remotely close to the answer would help.
PS : Your employer is going to now bombard me with cartoon related ads/emails on reading this email ;)
