2008 July 6 - Dairy Farm

After the MYBC, Doreen and I went to Dairy Farm.

Heard some noise and we brushed it off as a squirrel. Then a straw-headed bulbul flew out from the bush. It perched on a branch and continued vocalizing with a fruit still in its beak.
I noticed that a yellow-vented bulbul was also in the bush and the 2 birds seemed to be vying for territory.
On another tree, we saw a yellow-vented bulbul feeding 2 fledglings. The young ones look so cuddly.

Along the way, we saw a bluish egg on the ground. On reaching the quarry, Doreen spotted 2 little grebes but I only managed to see 1.
