When there are too many mouth to be fed it will come a day when there will be shortage of food to the swiftlet.
The worst is during dry season.
But what about during a very wet season?
It seem that last December 2007, something unusual happened in Besut, Trengganu.
You are well aware that December in the East Coast, the rain pours nearly the whole month.
It seem that the food source were said to be not adequate.
The bad sign, indicated by Mr.J, the young birds will be found dead on the BH floors. Lots of them depending on the number of nests you have in your BH. It was like they jump out of their nests or perhaps being dump out by their parents.
I am not very sure what was the cause of such a behaviour and I doubt that it was due to lack of food.
All this while I though rainy seasons will create more food and not the reverse.
Need to crack my head what is the actual cause of such a behaviour.
If any of my blog reader do have some possible explanations, please be kind enough to make your comment.

dari pendapat saya, jika hujan yang tidak mengakibatkan banjir mampu menghasilkan sumber makanan (insect) yang banyak.
tapi, bagi kes yang sampai tahap banjir, serangga pun tak sempat nak membiak. bila tunggu banjir surut, perlukan masa pula untuk menghasilkan telur, larva dan seterusnya induk matang. berkemungkinan juga kawanan serangga berpindah ke tempat lain.
ini hanya pendapat, tidak disokong oleh mana2 fakta. mungkin pembaca lain boleh berkongsi sama
