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.

Swiftlets and Swallows

 Always a challenge but simply couldn't walk by when so many graced the sky.

And it's the season when juveniles abound down here, and up there too.

Aerodrammus sp also known as dark swiftlets, as I've been told, include the edible as well as Germain's swiftlets.  And in time, is reportedly to be lumped together as edible swiftlets - the never-ending name changes, re-classifying that goes on in avian taxonomy.




Swallows - that's another classification.
But today, juveniles graced the sky.


An older juvenile.
