Some birds are in a group and not just in pairs. The Barbets, Wood peckers, Magpie Robins, Warblers and Mynas are the birds, I notice in groups in our garden.
To see them in groups is a delight as they can communicate to each other intimately, even while belonging to a group, like what I noticed in the second photograph here.
Belonging and behaving are two dynamic human activities. We belong because we choose to stay connected. We stop belonging when we dissociate or move away from a group. We behave accordingly. When we belong we behave inclusively and mutually, which is what would make any family or organisation prosper in harmony and integration.
There are many single birds in our garden. One activity they are engaged is to make loud bird calls to invite other birds.
Every time I see birds in a group, I feel inclined to follow their movements and behaviour.
Watching them tells me that, to belong to a group is a natural behavioural instinct!
