House birds

Our new house in Kosti provides accommodation to a few special guests; two bird couples have decided to build their nest in a hole in the ceiling of our living room. After having worked hard to establish their new homes, they have now finally become the happy parents of a handful of baby birds. But the quiet times are over, both for the parents and for us; the little ones are very good in making clear that they are longing for nice juicy worms or insects.  Don’t think this is only the case during office-hours; sometimes they are even begging for a tasty snack in the middle of the night! Although it gives some inconveniences (our living room is naturally also used as their toilet space) our special Sudanese guests are more than welcome to stay with us for some time.
