Bulbul.Yellow-vented Bird

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away

I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
Oh I believe I can fly

a nice song by R. Kelly which makes a nice prelude to my pictorial..

One day, found this little fella on the high branches being fed by its mother, or father..


the parent does seem smaller isnt it.. but notice the juvenile bird tail feather doesnt fully developed yet.

Weeks past and one day found a pair of parents chirping away..with food in their bills. Just imagine talking with your mouth full! But they can do that..


One offering berry and another a worm.


gulp...One swallowed the berry..

The young one still dont wanna to try to fly down an get some meal..


I guess it havent get the gut to fly down yet. The first time is always scary i guess.


hmm.. better get a nicer food, maybe will entice the young one to overcome its fear..


One parent fly away... one still offering the worm ,

hoping its young will fly down to get its meal..

flying the first time

first step to adulthood...
