Burung Perling Mata Merah makan buah Kenidai Jantan; Glossy Starling feeding on Bridelia tomentosa fruits

This Bridelia tomentosa shrub grows at a slope on the access road to Mahkamah Majistret Raub (Magistrate Court Raub. I think it grows wild from the seeds dropped by birds, as I have not seen this tree as a roadside plant by JKR or Majlis Daerah Raub

I set a simple feeder by placing one ripe banana on the fence wire, and wait for this common bird to eat it.

Ripe Rambutan Fruits

Now it all ripe, and ready for harvest.
Actually I have only three rambutan tree, two yellow ("gading") and one red ("anak sekolah") variety.
The rambutan at my backyard flowers in march (here the pic).

The fruit matures 15-18 weeks after flowering.
