A bird call that makes a difference








The romantic behaviour of the sun birds in our garden held my attention. It was in response to the bird call of a male bird that one bird arrived to whom the male bird gave its best performance in tuneful singing. Later three other birds joined the site during which time the the male bird hid itself in the foliage, whose beak can be visible. After the other birds left, the initial two were left alone, although the the female was about to fly away.

It is the season of mating for these birds. I look forward to more of such romantic scenes in our garden in the days to come. 

During this season of receding monsoon, I also look forward to many more birds visiting our garden!
