Black-and-white Warblers are usually dapper little birds, with their head-to-tail zebra stripes. Suddenly I saw a ground squirrel creeping up on the Bunting. Leaving the squirrel to feed on the very same grass stalk. But this one had just bathed, and had not yet combed its hair. BUM-bum, BUM-bum!

There were wild boars and monitors rustling through the leaves as well as the plantain squirrels that we had become so accustomed to. We were surprised that it had taken until this day to find Coconut Lorikeets. We had not expected to see too many bird species on this short walk, but sometimes these short walks can have a surprise or two.
