I could see these birds in my garden space for some days and making frequent visits. The Red-vented Bulbul is a member of the bulbul family of passerine birds. It is resident breeder in tropical southern Asia from India and Sri Lanka east to Burma and southwestern China.
The Red-vented Bulbul is easily identified by its short crest giving the head a squarish appearance. The body is dark brown with a scaly pattern while the head is darker or black. The rump is white while the vent is red. The black tail is tipped in white.
Male and female are similar in plumage, but young birds are duller than adults. Their alarm calls are usually responded to by many other species of bird.
By looking their close moves, I could witness a nest on one of the bamboo trees with this tiny little bulbul’s.
When I was taking pictures, the little ones were opening their mouth for food. The adult bulbul coming with insects as food to feed the little ones.
After few days the little birds have fallen from the nest in attempt of flying out from the nest. The adult bulbul was helpless in moving them to safe place.
We had few cats and dogs in the community, and it was great threat for the little ones. I moved the little ones to new nest with big in size, but even after some time they started moving out of the nest.
Tried moving them to another bigger nest and they come out again and unable to fly high.
To make a safer place I moved them to a bigger drum which is safe from moving out and full protection from cats and dogs.
After 3 days little one could come out for take off and reached top of the bamboo tree to start its flying journey. Two days later another one has come out and happily took its safe track.
Help the birds to return by arranging food grains and water in your balcony, roof top and in parks.
