The yellow bamboo clump at the front garden has grown tall and dense. Among its stems and leaves a pair of nesting Chestnut Munia is seen busy flying in and out of their sanctuary. I was able to get a closer look of the birds this morning. It is no wonder why people call it the Chestnut Munia. The hood is black but the body is a rich chestnut brown colour. The bill is bluish grey and stands in stark contrast to its black face. Their presence at the front garden makes nature a step closer to the front door.
