Came across this lovely little Barbet quite busy in making a nest. She was pecking the tree for maybe 15 mins and in this angle we could see the hole. I think the nest would take a left turn inside a bit so that the eggs can be laid there without falling down. So there remains a bit of work I guess to complete it.

I had seen these nests before, but never it actively making one. This is their nesting season and soon the air will be filled with their metallic calls.

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback.
