Today morning on a walk, I hear bulbuls happily playing and making noises as usual. I slow down to pass more silently without disturbing them much. and as look up to check if any other bird was hitchhiking with bulbuls, see a flash of bright yellow. Have seen Golden oriole pair spend their mornings chasing each other energetically there before, but this wasn't one. to my surprise, it was a black hooded immature. They are not seen here year around but only few days a year as they pass by in some local migration like movement, so wasn't expecting to see one. It was an extremely lovely Juv (ok, as all the Juvs in the world are). He did see me, but it didnt occur to him that he should be wary of the most dangerous species on the planet and continued his playful movements on the branches in his very endearing style. Makes a perfect morning. isnt it?
