A month back, I noticed these two parakeets hovering around this dry coconut palm and making hollows in the stem by peeling of the fibres of the stem. Following the raining season, when I looked at the stem, I found multiple hollows in the stem!
When I used the zoom lens, I noticed a green speck in one hollow, suggesting that a bird was present in that hollow. Since I noticed it two days back, I was looking for a bird activity around this. In the short time I have been at home, when it is still day, I am yet to notice bird movements around this hollow!
I often look around in our garden during the autumn and water months for bird's nests ! Now that the rain is receding , the bird activity would increase.
Birds find or create nests! They make them in safe places!
I found this squirrel gathering materials for making its nest in the garden! That too gave me enough reason to be on to look out for nests in the garden!
