Being a mother for the first time means mistakes can be made very easily. In the jungle of Vietnam, I documented a bird feeding her chicks with over-sized fruits and pray, choking her chick.
I nearly cried with intense anxiety and grimaced every time she tried to think on what to do after making her first mistake that would have a fateful circumstance for her with the pending doom with one on her chicks, Only if she was able to find a quicker way to problem solve by trying to find a way to remove that dang , troublesome fruit which seems to be bigger than a cherry pit. She almost made the same mistake with the other chick, before she realized that the fruit she chose was the wrong size for the throat of her chicks because they were not fully grown to swallow something big like that. Only if she made a mistake by inadvertently swallowing the entire fruit herself. Hopefully she learned her lesson, the hard way. I hope she found a smaller and more decent fruit that is easier for her chicks to swallow. In the meantime I hope her babies are resting comfortably so they can fully recover from such a frustrating and frightening experience.
Alhumdulilah kaseera Last year bulbul built a nest n two babies flew Now again same place in my gallery bulbul has built a nest n there r two eggs therein. I feel so excited n happy
My heart is still pounding!!! Could clearly feel the adrenaline rush, fear, nervousness induced by disturbing visuals of the suffocating chick. Was on on my seat's edge throughout 😭 Although informative & beautifully captured, yet someone with chronic anxiety like me, shouldn't be watching such videos 😰🥵 lesson learnt!
This is one of the funniest nature videos ever! The narrater was awesome and I couldn't stop laughing! I think I have watched this about 10 times! It is funny every time too!!
I have a Red whiskered Bulbul making her nest in our Garden. The nest is under construction. Thought of taking her video via mobile when she is making her nest. I hanged the mobile beside the nest. But at the right time Battery gave up (some terrible problem with my phone....battery drains like a rocket!). Hope I get it right next time. But her timing is like God knows when she will come! It takes time, patience and to be at the right place at the right time to make these kind of videos. An adventure Indeed! The GidiAdventures!!!
Spirit Of Soul. I love your bird story. It was many years ago that we have a Chinese bul bul chick fallen from the nest during a typhoon day, I picked up and care for it for a few days until the chick grows up a bit and I put it outside the house on the small tree, believe it or not...this part was really amazing 😉 the parents came around the house and kept calling the chick 🐣 and the chick responding to it parents, so during day time I let the parents looked after the chick and I brought it in before dark. I could remember everything until now and I took some pictures too.
@@jumsaesiaw6890 That was fascinating indeed of having been a part of raising a bulbul. But my story ended in a tragedy. Villain being a notorious cat. After the nest was build the bulbul laid 3 eggs in a span of 3 days. The small tree in my garden that bulbul buid the nest was just beside my door. And it was build just about my height and I could see it everyday when I opened my door. As days passed the bulbul started sleeping on the nest at night. Earlier God knows where she went. One night I just walked out my door and saw a cat pass by. I just chased it away and thought it was gone. I went into the room and after a couple of minutes I heard a loud thud and hastily walked out of my room and saw the cat running away. Next I saw the bulbul lying on ground. I was just broken inside. The bird was taking fast breaths but after some moments it died. That was really shocking for me. I waited praying it comes back to life but it didn't. Finally I buried the bird below the same tree. In the morning the father of the eggs came. I wished he sits on the egg but he didn't. He came every morning calling for the mother. Before burying the mother I once thought to show the father of the eggs that she has died but the thought that it might hurt him I buried it instead. Next I took the eggs and made an artificial hatching box thinking I might save the eggs. After about 10 days I saw one egg partially broken and I could see the bird inside but she was dead. Sad. The other eggs didn't hatch. I buried them beside her mother. That was sad. Wished I could see the birds hatch and grow. But it couldn't fructify.
LOL! The narration on this video was funny as hell! The baby bird didn't die, they seldom die from choking to death. Buy the narrator was pretty funny!
Thank God, she was able to save the babies from getting suffocated by over-sized bolus of food. This is surely an extraordinary scene caught by the GidiAdventures.
That pice of fruit was way too big for the baby bird to swallow I could see that is was suffocating the good thing is that the mother bird got the big pice of fruit out of the baby birds throat before it could suffocate even more
People call idiots bird brained for a reason. When you nearly killed one offspring and try to see if it’s okay for the other one that’s not “inexperienced”.
aceclepto she was holding onto it trying to have the baby tear it into smaller pieces. Like holding onto the paper towel rack with one hand and pulling the towel with the other. The moms mouth and the babys mouth are two hands. Also Even baby birds can fit a shocking amount in their gullet she didnt know it was too big at first.
