| Remarks : | I have witnessed a nest of this species just opposite my house for two years now..and on one fine morning, this year, I found the two of them bringing out eggs out of their nest and breaking them on the attic of the adjacent residence. The eggs were not empty...when they broke the eggs, some white fluid spurted out. - SS |
