A pair of Brown-Headed Barbet has chosen to make our Subabul tree their home for the second year in a row. These birds are very difficult to spot in trees because of their Green plumage. But their distinctive call will let you know of their presence and someone with a keen eye will be able to catch a glimpse of the elusive bird. The pair is taking turns to make a hole in the tree trunk where they will hopefully lay eggs. They have been at it for more than three weeks and now the tree hole is big enough for the bird to slide into it.
