Selva Chi Pictures


From top to bottom (Click to enlarge) : 1. The choza with the roof finished.
2. Me chiseling away with Selva Chi in the background.
3. The bee hive we cut out of a fallen tree

4. The Bully Bird (our name for him) Our morning entertainment was to put 2 or 3 bananas in a bird feeder and watch the local birds interact. There were probably a dozen regular species that would come by and eat every morning. It was all peaceful until this little guy showed up and stole the show. He was tiny, but incredibly quick. If he was around, no other birds were allowed to feed and we saw him keep about 8 birds at bay, some being around 3 times his size. The male Bully Bird would guard all the bananas until his mate showed up, ate a peaceful meal all to herself, and then the rest of the crowd was allowed to feed. It was a pretty entertaining show to watch at breakfast every day.
