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.

Bulbul goes splish-splashing

Too tempting not to dip in ....



Excuse me my rudeness!


Ahh, yet a swirling yellow vent to cover the 'rudeness'.

for a fruit

One fruit for one bird ...



... until this one landed almost right next to me, and shocked, it promptly left its fruit as it flew off to join its mate.





As it sensed there're onlookers and opportunists!



And soon enough the perpetrators moved in.




Would it let go?

Catching up with the barbets

 It could only be the recent second brood of Lineated Barbets as I chanced upon this pair foraging up high, and it certainly felt good to see them all grown up!

The first one ....




... and the other




And it was certainly not the fig fruits that they're after, for none was taken, as they probed in between the figs instead.

And how this handsome bird blended in perfectly with the leaves and the figs!






As I was passing by

And this is what the park is for too ....


and a couple of days later, another capture ....
