One of them sits on the grill and chirps at an amazing volume (for such a little bird) for quite a few hours every morning. He or she is a pretty persistent little fellow, returning within a few minutes if shooed.
There's one tiny little bird which I think was born on top of the air conditioner outside the window. A couple of these birds constantly swing from a neem plant on the window ledge. All in all, it's wonderful to have them around, flying, chirping and generally sitting around. |
