It was a hectic month running between the North and Central. I am so tired probably could drop dead. Few farms waiting to be completed hopefully could start the sound in the middle of this month. Obviously the owners can't wait for it. They thought that sealing up windows and having Cd sound played birds would make nests. It is not as easy as most would think. I need to educate and teach them. There are so much more to learn.

The pictures above are one of the farms that I am doing in the North. The concrete works had been completed. Now there is some cement plastering works. Once all had been done then the installations of nesting planks will be next. I am trying to complete this in 2 weeks time. I could have done it earlier but running between so many farms it has taken lots of my time. Never mind I will do it on my own pace making sure it will turn out to be a good farm.

I have been doing wiring and tweeters installation on some of these farms on my own. The job was supposed to be done by my Indon workers but unfortunate the one that handles the wiring job had admitted to Hospital for Dengue. What to do, I have to complete it as this is my commitment and responsibility to the farm’s owners.
The DK was designed in a way to accommodate the flying path of the birds. Too big of a DK would cause brightness and disliked by birds. Too small restricted the flying circle of Swiftlets. An appropriate pre- planned size according to the design would be good.
Hope all of you can learn something about the size of DK. If the DK is perfectly done Swiftlets will flying in easily and stay longer in the roving before flying deeper into the nesting areas.
Otherwise you would see Swiftlets reluctant to fly in or go in few second and exist immediately even you had played a good cd sound.
Shall update about the above farms when it near completions.
Good Luck.
