On 28-8-2015 I have found Red vented bulbuls making nest inside a thick growth of bamboo bush inside the compound of my neighbour and just infront of my house at Nethaji housing colony, Taliparamba. One bulbul is found carrying materials for the nest and the other two following it.Sometimes one of the two bulbuls is found chasing the other and frequently making sweet whistling sounds after perching on a hibiscus branch or a cable wire. I have watched them for about 20 minutes from 8.15 a.m. Bulbuls are seen commonly at this place.
