During the breeding season, some Cattle Egrets look like teenage girls who have just discovered the existence of make-up, and consequently massively overdo it. But what do I know about the taste preferences of Cattle Egrets. A paper reports on how a female Common Cuckoo was mobbed and killed by Oriental Reed Warbler hosts.

Anyone with more than a couple of hours to kill could easily make a quick birding foray out from the airport. Let’s take Singapore’s Changi International Airport as an example; it is a huge hub airport with large numbers of people passing through in transit to Australia, Indonesia and south-east Asia.

It’s all very well to advocate the should that tigers should not be poached from a reserve in India. The tigers keep wandering out of their reserve and taking cattle from nearby villages, taking what little these already poor people have. Perhaps it would be better to move the tigers to that bigger reserve, or maybe a zoo.

Different from many other parasitic cuckoos, the chick typically does not kill all its nest mates, though one or two of them may die from starvation. I think the photo shows a male bird, as certain parts of the head seem more black than grey. The Asian Koel is a parasitic cuckoo that is not very common in Shanghai.
