Oriolus chinensis
Habitat : Wooded, residential area

Notes : Nests of this species are normally well-concealed, however this newly constructed nest was clearly visible from a first floor apartment. Shortly after this image was taken the tree was shaken during a violent rainstorm, many leaves fell from the tree further exposing the nest, which was immediately abandoned.
