Kyoto University Botanical Garden 3-29-12

Kyoto University Botanical Garden 3-29-2012

Sunny, balmy, about 12 degrees C

Brown-eared Bulbul: 5 drinking from their  sun-illuminated perches along low-hanging tree branches above the the edge of the pond near the greenhouses; it is unusual to see this behavior in Brown-eared Bulbuls, who usually stay high in tall trees all morning, eating fruits and nectar, and peering down at all the goings on below, and jabbering, screeching and cooing to each other constantly)  (perhaps the drinking behavior seen today is typical of Brown-eared Bulbuls on a late afternoon at the sun-illuminated edge of this pond.

Great Tit: 1 (male singing)

Japanese Bush Warbler:  1 (male, singing)

Crow (Carrion crow, I think): 2 in tall trees, near each other (a male/ female pair?)


Then, an hour later:

Demachiyanagi Station area:

Barn Swallow  2 (standing beside one other on a telephone wire).
