Dear All,

I would like to share my observation on Scaly Breasted Munias, and I want expert’s opinion on the same.

During the month of October, November, December 2010, I regularly used to observe these small birds near my place and 6-8 pairs in my office premises.
I have seen them feeding, mating, nesting and also raising their young ones.
But from last one month I am not able to find a single one at these places where I used to regularly see.

Do these birds migrate or have they changed their location, I mean have they moved to a different place in search of food and shelter.

I used to see them feeding along with common house sparrows near my place, but even today these sparrows are still exit here , but scaly breasted Munias are not there.

Experts please provide your opinions on the same, and suggest me few tips which I can implement at my place to conserve these beautiful birds.

Regards,
Akshay
