Spring-Summer - 334
Spring-Summer ...

The remittance ...

My all time favorite
... little
darlings ...

... suffer due
to Pet-trade ...

All because of
their beauty
... spontaneity ...
vivacious charm
... high emotional
quotient ... and
irrepressible energy

They did a huge
favor to me ...
this summer
... remitted my
unconditional love
for them ...

... by nesting twice
in the backyard vine
of our weekend home ...
... once in the
beginning of this summer ...
and for a 2nd time
now ...

Watch one of them
sitting in the
Rangoon Creeper
(Combretum indicum)
growing
in our backyard ... and
reaching the top of
the building ...
in a
video-clip ... taken
yesterday ...

A beautiful double capture of these Silverbills Alok!

It's a shame about them being sold as pets and kept in a cage.
