Summer 2002, the story of Bulbul making nest on our garden's tree.

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.

Three young birds fledged. Please visit my house again any time, and learn the 'jumping catch' from their parent.


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.

January, 2023. I've not seeing wild birds making nest in my garden quite some time these days.

Because of the frequent pruning of my garden's trees, the bird may not find the trees are good enough to make nest.
To invite the birds in my garden again, I decided to make bird house, feeding station and water place nearby trees
and expecting to call again.
