July 10, 2013

Today I decided to put an apple on the spike for the birds - I have not done so in a while.
I set up the camera just inside the front door where the birds cannot see me.
They are very aware of the sound of the shutter, though!
Despite the fact that there is now a resident cat on the hostel grounds where my cottage is situated, 
an amazing variety of 9 bird species arrived for the feast!  Before long only the core was left. 
Next on the menu was a banana and when that was eaten, I placed another apple on the spike. 
The Sombre Bulbul at bottom left seemed to be shouting:
"Hear ye, hear ye - she's put out a fresh apple!"
How else did all the birds know that fruit had been put out for them today?
Who spreads the news?
