It was only after noticing this pattern a few times, I got a sense of the anxiety state some birds carry with them!
I heard how a highly accomplished professional is weary of driving! There is no history of accidents or unpleasant experiences on road. He drives carefully and efficiently. He decided to take some help to overcome the inhibition or fear that he carries. He discovered during a structured debriefing that he fed his thoughts with news of accidents, which then occupied his inner ambience. Two month later, after he found ways to demystify his fear he found a new enthusiasm to drive!
I do come across Bulbuls who co-feed with Barbets. Although the body language of both of the birds above is indicative of some discomfort, I watched both of them feed from the same feeding bowl!
Fear is mostly imaginary ! Each person can adapt to situations of fear and anxiety without being overcome by them!
The above photo tells us that the avians do overcome fear or anxiety to a good extent! That in itself is a step forward in fraternal view of each other!
To be fraternal is to be fully relational in behaviour!
