Nest of Asian Paradise Flycatcher

I could locate a nest of Asian Paradise flycatcher hidden within the thick cover of leaves on the top of a Celtis tree. As read in the bird guides it was infact a compactly wooven cup of fine grasses and fibres, plastered outside with cobwebs.













Built on and with the support of the branches of Khirak(Celtis asutralis) tree, it was very high so could not get the glimpse of the interiors of the nest.











It was great fun watching the male and female taking turns for the safety of the nest and for bringing food.

lovely!!!!!!!!!!!!
