Very nice. I live in central Florida, USA and the only bulbuls near me are escaped captives in South Miami. They have been breeding in the area and are now established in Kendall, Florida around the area of a tennis club. I’ve driven the 4 hours to see them and they are beautiful birds.Their crest reminds me of me of our northern cardinal which is found throughout the country or the pyrrhuloxia which resides in the southwestern USA. I’ve found that the bulbul sleeps in late so no need to get an early start to see these birds!

[@Arlene2]

I just saw this amazing video 3 years after original post 😊 I had never heard of these birds before, but after doing some research online, I discovered that some of them live in the Pasadena area. I also live outside of L.A. and 2 years ago, we noticed that a pair of Bulbuls had built a nest in my neighbor’s tree. Sadly, something happened to the female, but the male has remained here ever since, frequently calling out for a mate (I presume), in the exact area near the tree. I’ve been hoping that he would find another mate, especially since we’re so close to Pasadena. Today, for the first time, I finally saw two Bulbuls on the telephone line near his old nest ❤😊🤞To be continued……

[@mirzabahirudgi9901]

Very same thing happened with me. It's important to note that once they left nest, they don't come back to nest. I felt sad that they didn't come back. I kept watch on them. They were moving here and there but don't come back. Second time they gave birth to 3 babies, but they abandoned 1 baby. I tried to make catch their attention to that 1 baby. But parents didn't care and finally that 1 died. I tried to survive it by providing food but that didn't survive.

I don't know what happened when I got out my room the parent birds started flying over me making some noise. What should I do if they attack me? I'm a little scared. Also I don't know if the baby birds left the nest or not. Will they still attack me even after they leave the nest??

[@Fstopro]

Don't worry, they become very defensive only during the flight lessons for the chicks. This will only last for 2 days max. It's better not to go near them for the next two days. Once the chicks fly away, even the parents leave the nest and won't bother you again :)

As these red bulbul made so much times their nest and usually they are coming in my lawn son I observed there behavior very closely.. and once I also tried to take chick in my finger ( as there was evening time and still one chick could not fly properly so I took it on my finger and placed it on the plant ) at that time the parents were there but they just make one alert sound but they didn't attack on me . And in the morning I tried to help that cute chick in flying by placing it on the rope on some height at that time also parents just did some alert... and as I placed that baby .. one parent came and make that chick able to fly by several practice ... so you can help in some emergency situation you can help chick's... but be gentle , touch them in only emergency situation ,otherwise let the chick try :) to explore . Thanks friend

[@Fstopro]

Thank you for your comment and watching the video :) 1. These birds lay eggs at my place every year and I know they get defensive when their chicks start to fly. I don't have any reflecting surface as you mentioned. It's a mesh door, not a glass one. So they were indeed in attacking mode warning me to stay away. 2. I don't think we should touch the chicks and interfere with their natural process. Whether the chicks make it or not, it's left to nature :)

I wish I saw this vdo 2 months ago. I found a bulbul chick (probably aged 10 days if matches this vdo). I gained attention of the parents and kept the chick on the balcony. Parents came in turn and fed the chick. Tried to take it out, but it couldn't fly then, only small jumps. For the next three/four days it kept jumping higher and higher and one day it jumped and took a short flight to the grill. I felt it wasn't good enough and if it falls down then it'll be eaten by the cats below. Also it was raining heavily for some days and there was flood water around. So I tied a knot on its leg out of its safety concerns. Now I understand, it was a big mistake. It's still with us. The parents fed for about 1.5 weeks more. Then stopped feeding but still visited. Then slowly stopped coming. I still see them sometimes around. It probably has one sibling that I saw few days back. I trained it to fly. It can fly if it wants. Today it learned to self feed. I want to release it soon. But, It grew on me, basically became my child and I really love it now. I don't know if I can gain the strength to let it go in the wild knowing it probably won't survive. It didn't learn wild survival techniques. I don't know what I'll do. ☹️

[@Fstopro]

It was good to read your experience. I would say, at this point, pls take care of it as your pet as long as it lives. As you said, without initial teachings by its parents, it won't survive in the wild.

When I was keeping the chick in the nest I noticed that there were only one chick , second chick was missing. Now there were two chicks in the nest. Next day I found dead body of the chick( who was missing) on the roof. I was surprised because chick was too small to fly. So this time when I put the fallen chick in the nest ,mother bird accepted it. After 3-4 day both chicks started learning how to fly. I was very carefull that any crow or kite or cat didn't eat them. Mother bird was very comfortable even when I took both chicks in my hand in front of them. Generally bird are very aggressive when they teaches their chicks how to fly. Mother bird and other 4 bulbul birds were teaching both chicks how to fly. But after some minutes I saw only one chick with them. I searched everywhere but didnot find the chick.perhaps that one flew in another direction because there were no cat or crow near the floor. I hope the lost chick got reunited with her mom! I saw the one chick learning how to fly and after 1 hour the chick flew away with mother birds. I want to ask that is it possible that a bulbul can kill the chicks of other bulbul... Because I think that the one chick who get lost, was killed by other bulbul bird as I saw that they were attacking on the chicks. (I don't know it was attack or any techenique to teach them how to fly!)

Hey Shradha, thank you for this write up, it's good to know different bird stories. It is normal for the mama bird to discard one of it's chicks (Natural Selection). If you see any chick on the floor, it's not by an accident. Normally, the bulbul nests can accommodate only two growing chicks. It's very unlikely for the other bulbul birds to attack and kill the chicks. It can't even be a predatory bird coz it would have consumed the chick, not just kill and leave the body. My guess, it's the mama bird who disposed the other chick on the roof. Of course they can't carry a grown chick, so am guessing it must be during early days. Even in my video, the mama bird disposed one of the 3 chicks and I didn't find the body anywhere in the vicinity.

@@Fstopro thanks for replying🙏....As I passed nearly 20 days with the mother bird and also when she was teaching her chicks how to fly, mother bird was very close to me and she was not aggressive with me .Still some bulbul birds came to my house.... I am curious that if the mother bird recognises me or not? please don't mind , I am very curious To know about birds...🙏

@@shradhasrivastava9015 Hey, no worries :). I will tell you whatever I know. I am sure the mother bird recognizes you, but it may not be obvious to you as their gestures are different.

One year ago Red whiskered bulbul had made nest in my house and have given eggs in the same nest 3 times already...I have not removed the nest and she then keep returning every year...last month when Bulbul babies flyied away...I guess this bulbuls relative came and now she is sitting in nest on eggs...I give them bananas,apples, grapes, papaya and pomegranate to eat near the nest...I hope you believe me as it don't looks true for them to comeback in same nest for 3 times already.

[@Fstopro]

Yes, this happens. I had the same couple use the same nest 3 times already. This is normal, if they feel the location is safe, they keep returning. However, I would say, don't over feed them coz they shouldn't get used to humans feeding them :)

Few days ago the same happened. Wish I had seen this video. The second baby bird was weak and it just sat on floor . It just won't fly. I thought maybe if I open the gate completely it will. As cats frequent my place I thought I will just sit after opening gate just to keep an eye. As soon as I approached to open gate it just flew out ..And it happened so suddenly. It could barely fly long distance and settled on grass.. I stood guard and then I just went inside for a few seconds and when I returned it wasn't there and I could see two kite/hawks flying low and the father and mother bulbul chasing it. Now I can't know for sure if it died or they ate it or it survived😭😭 Makes me feel responsible though Update: I see a new pair of eggs in the same nest and mommy bulbul is taking care of it. Not gonna interfere this time and let nature take its course

[@Fstopro]

Yes, kite would have had it for sure. That's a good news, it's better see this amazing life from a distance and appreciate. Most chicks live and some don't, part of life :)

bro how can we differentiate bulbul gender by looking them does size determine?

[@Fstopro]

It's very hard to find the gender just by a glance. In this case, mother was a little bigger than the father. All other physical features are identical.
