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.

And it perched

 It could be heard regularly, it could be seen to circle about although mostly in the distance.  As with any raptor I always hope that it would descend to perch, for better views.  An it finally did.

It's a sub-adult Changeable Hawk-eagle (Nisaetus Limnaeetus), pale morph so could that be why it's still about this area and has not left for wider pasture?  A hawk-eagle normally resides in forest or forest edge, although is also known to inhabit plantations and enormous parks.
