Gary,

i saw today chestnut bulbuls descending to my eye level to feed on fruits of this plant.

Bryan,

Thank you for your information.
I think this fruit is not a usual food item for Chestnut Bulbul as this species of plant only occur in low shrub, a habitat not so favourable to Chestnut Bulbul.

hi George,
though the Piculet may not be there weeks after, may I know the TPK park you mentioned is 松仔園 or the Picnic Area?
thanks for clarification ; )

Happy Birding Year!

grey throated minivets, chestnut bulbuls and japanese whiteeyes along the access road with the voice of forktailed sunbirds in the background all the way.  a crested goshawk flew across the valley over the dam, which were filled with nearly 20 noisy scarlet minivets, making the valley feels like a bazaar.

a pair of orange bellied leafbirds, together with forktailed sunbirds and whiteeyes were posing for the photographers at the entrance to the garden later found empty.  near the quarters were some very quiet silver eared mesias and yellow browed warblers.

scarlet minivets and chestnut bulbuls were eveywhere among the paper bark trees on the red, with the voice of a great barbet in the background.  u-turned reaching the red-blue shortcut which was very quiet and disappointing.  only arriving back at picnic 1 that a very shy blue whistling thrush was making itself heard though not seen, then followed by another pack of silver eared mesias, and then a birdwave of mainly yellow cheeked tits, mingled with blue winged minlas and greater necklaced laughingthrushes.
