The firmiana malayana or mata lembu, remains here in testimony to man's care-less-ness - its tree had since been felled. Let not the birds leave too.

Nosy-pecker

If there's a bird that could be termed 'nosy-pecker' it would certainly be the woodpecker.  This Rufous Woodpecker is exemplary, flying in, flitting from branch to branch, poking into every available cavity.





Occasionally it would take a break, scanned around as if expecting another to appear.


And then it was back to business, or poking to be more appropriate, as usual.


Another intermittent rest and it would be off, not easy to anticipate when it would take off, sometimes to the next branch, sometimes it's up, up and away.
