Nest building complete





The female does not bring any more material to the box . The nest bulding seems to be now complete.



A few days back , there was a big fight at the box between the mynas , sparrows and the magpies. The  electric pole seems to be the edge of the male's territory , with most of the battles being fought there… A pair of bramny starlings love to annoy the magpies . 




The male magpie dive bombs any bird that sits on the pole. Causes a lot of ruffled feathers.





We had a surprise visitor today , A shikra , most probably from a nest we know of from near by. Caused quite a stir among the pigeons and the garden birds.
