When Those Flower Blooms, There Will Be More Insects !!!

I was waiting for a friend to visit an office when I saw a young "Mata Kuching" fruit tree blooming.

One of the branch with lots of flowers was low enough for me to take some Video clip.

There were more then a dozen those small bees (Kelulut) that were collecting the flowers nectar and pollens plus some zebra striped flies.

I am very sure that these bees and flies are food to your swiftlet.

The more the flower blooms the more will there be these bees around your BH.

I did recommend to plant the Mata Kuching around your BH however it seem that they also attract lots of fruit bats during fruiting seasons.

What the video clip shows you is that those plants are interelated to our swiftlet farming.  They produces flowers and attract those bees and flies.  The bees and the flies will attract those birds.

Enjoy the clip..............
