my wildlife

I maintain a small bamboo bush just in front of my official residence. This is the home to a 4-5 group of white-rumped munia. I see them only twice. By about 6 AM I could just catch a glimpse of "rockets" speeding away from the bamboo thicket. Before I realise what is happening it is gone!

By dusk, the group comes swooping down like fighter jets. It just penetrates into the thickets and is gone. Silence follows....
