Behind The High Wall

Behind The High Wall I once found myself wondering, "what will it be like to live beside this high wall?" This is the chronicle of the answers I found

Eight nights of unwavering love. 🦅🌾
​It’s the 8th night of checking on our little neighbor. For a brief second tonight, she stepped away, giving us a rare glimpse into her sacred space. There they are—two tiny eggs, perfectly safe and warm.

​It’s incredible how something so small can withstand so much change. Nature always finds a way to remind us of its strength. 🥹❤️

Day 5: A sanctuary untouched by the world. 🪺✨
​Five nights ago, I accidentally found this quiet haven right on the day I began spraying the land with herbicide. Amidst all the changes around her, this beautiful Yellow-vented Bulbul remains completely unchanged—still faithfully shielding her two precious eggs.
​Her silent courage is a reminder that a mother's love is the strongest fortress in nature. 🤍🍃

My eyes are still adjusting to seeing wonders everywhere since finding that bird's nest. From afar, this speckled round piece looked just like a fragile eggshell. Up close, I thought it was a stray golf ball. But nature loves a double twist—it’s actually just the hollow outer shell of an old golf ball!

​A piece of the past, slowly fading into the soil. 🏌️‍♂️🍂

The mystery was finally solved. The owners of the two eggs were a pair of Yellow-vented Bulbuls.

The riddle of the forgotten nest has finally found its rhyme tonight. 🪺✨

​For days, those silent, speckled eggs remained a beautiful mystery hidden in the shadows of the leaves. But tonight, the veil was lifted. Under the soft glow of the light, I finally met the quiet architects behind them—a pair of Yellow-vented Bulbuls (Burung Trucukan) resting side by side.

​Seeing them guard their future with such tender devotion makes you realize how full of wonder the world is, right in our own backyards. The keepers of the nest have returned. 😊🥲😚💕❤🍃🐦

Getting ready for dinner. Grilled fish. By the way, the main ingredient didn't come from behind these high walls—it was bought at the market 😀

It started when I went out late at night just to turn off the power to the borehole pump in the backyard. As I stepped outside with my headlamp on, the light suddenly caught a pair of glowing eyes perched up in a tree.

​A mix of panic and curiosity kicked in, so I rushed back inside to grab my phone. Unfortunately, by the time I got back, the creature had already moved and was nowhere to be found in its original spot.

​After searching all around the yard, I finally spotted it again near the end of the video—perched on top of the high concrete wall before it ducked away out of sight. It's highly likely just a wild civet but man, the atmosphere was definitely intense! 🫣
