Mynah Bird & Its Family : Apr-10

About 6 months ago, we have noticed two mynah birds constantly flying around our air-con compressor unit. When I investigated further, I discovered that the mynahs have been pecking on the outer wooden plank which was used to cover up the HDB air-con compartment.

Shin Yang and I decided not to cover up the hole as we were afraid that the mynahs might already laid their eggs there. So, instead of sealing, we even provided some shelter to prevent rain from entering the hole.

A few weeks ago, we started to hear more and more activities coming from the compartment. Although we have suspected that some eggs might have hatched, we were curious to know how it would look like within that space. Thus, with some aid of 'technology', I managed to place a fluorescent lamp into the gap and video tape it. Do you want to find out what we discovered? Take a look for yourself, you won't regret it, it's almost like the discovery channel... :-)
