I could use a bird like this at our house - it would never go hungry!

Superb shots Tabib! This is again a new species for me... How many species do you have around?

Thanks ALL for your comments.

I didn't count how many birds species I see nowadays.
In my early birding yes, I keep a sheet of paper for that.
Here is one of those list at my backyard. (42 species)

Autumn Belle, very good documentation of Common Tailor Bird and nest. I have seen that bird countless time at my backyard, but never seen the nest. Congratulation and thanks for sharing.
