Hi all, Yesterday evening observed a succession of Red-vented Bulbus voraciously feeding on the ripe fruits of Jungle Jalebi Pithecellobium dulce. There were territorial fights-fleeting but claiming to the fruit pod. This was also because fruits were rapidly diminishing on the tree. The feeding continued until light faded. The place is New Palam Vihar a residential colony in Gurgaon, Haryana. The tree had grown from dispersed seeds on a vacant house plot. Would appreciate if the group can share any observations of other birds feeding on Jungle Jalebi. I tried to photograph, but the time (evening).and location-the tree was shadowed by a taller acacia nilotica tree, made it near impossible to get a record shot. Looking forward to hearing from you, Thanks Janaki
