Perhaps not so bleak after all?

It could be the weather, it could be the time of the year or it could be the dark clouds over the taman.  It's certainly truly quiet in the taman, with only the usual common feathered residents around. 

When I came across the Ashy Tailorbird, the image I got certainly reflect my mood, dull and grim over the impending fate of the taman (in view of a forthcoming judicial review which may seal the future of this taman).
It's my only worthy meagre harvest of the morning.
Whatever, the Tailorbird is a survivor after all, spirited, energetic, ever-active, pretty difficult to nail down, a fighter I'll say.  Yaaa!
