Wild bird

On summer 2002, a couple of Brown-eared bulbul came to our home's garden. I gave them the food, such as bread, cheese. When I tossed a piece of food, they caught it on the fly. If they couldn't see me while they visited, they were just hovering on the window side and asking food with making sound 'pee~ pee~'. There are two ways of jumping catch. One is to catch food waiting while hovering, other is to catch food waiting on the branch of the tree and watching my throwing motion, then catch on the fly. They never let the food fall down on the earth.

Maybe, this pair of blublu thought that I am a friendly person, and thought this is a good place to make nest. They atarted making thier nest on the tree in our garden.

A sequel: The same bird, or their children, visited my house again next year 2004, and year 2005. The reason that I believe it's a same bird, is the fact that he/she knows the 'jumping catch' technique I trained before. I saw the same bird several years after since then, when spring came. I wanted to see the bird making nest again on the tree in our garden, but that's not happened.

In summer, 2007. A pair of dove start makin nest. On the same pine tree which the Brown-eared bulbul made a nest a couple of years ago, this time, the Oriental turtle dove is making nest. The story conitues.
