Golden Bosunbird nest


Golden Bosuns return to the same nesting sites every year. Normally they nest in crevices high up in cliff faces that require absailing skills to access. However, there is one nesting site left that sits outside some units in Poon Saan. This year, workmen had to remove the dead stump because of renovation work taking place at the units. Surprisingly, this didn't stop the pair from nesting in the same spot. The workment built a cave like structure to give it some privacy. But it doesn't cut out any of the noise the workmen make - the Bosunbird just tucks its head into its wing and goes to sleep.
