Wild, as in wandered in off the tropical forest and ended up on my stoop. The first is a Rajah Brooke butterfly. The second is a weaver bird. It weaves a beautiful hanging nest with many compartments.
Thought it would be nice to see something other than dogs, cats and ferrets.

“wandered in off the tropical forest..” Ok jealous here. Have to go to the Bio Park/Zoo to get the tropical feel. We have the heat here, just not the water….Just how big do those nests get? Outside of a documentary I’ve never seen one.
Hi Sumo Snipe…
well…. we have very indistinct seasons here. SO… we are even., Anyway… those nests can range from a single occupancy to a multi tier deck. That bird is called a Baya Weaver. Lowland bird. If you ever find a chick on the ground.. it will grow nicely on ground dogfood and puppy food.
