And of course, what you see in the background of these two photos is a Bronze Mannikin , giving me what is perhaps one of the best links in the personal history of my bird blog writing (low standards, admittedly). Mind you – it is indeed a description, not a video, as the research was done in 1952.

The breeding ecology of the Yellow-bellied Warbler was actually studied exactly here at Nonggang in 2019 by 3 Chinese researchers. Some Thai researchers looked at the breeding ecology of the Buff-breasted Babbler and published their findings in the somewhat unsuitable-sounding journal “Agriculture and Natural Resources”.

Having come back to the blog in whatever form and persistency, the overarching subject of language in birding seemed to be a suitable and deserving theme since bird names were part of my original beat.
