I have a few papaya trees and this one tree is quite tall. Most birds enjoy these fruits. We cannot reach them.
That's the cuckoo and woodpecker who are all set to attack the papayas.

Cor, lovely Woodpecker (y)

Can't usually get a shot of them over here, they're very shy.

Cute birds!!!:D
As for papaya fruits, so far I only ate them dry and didn't like them at all. I wonder if I'd like fresh ones more.

Beautiful woodpecker, shame he is about to attack the papayas, along his friend the cuckoo, hehehe! You have a garden full of fruits I don't even know and will never eat :D

I have vantage points from where I can 'shoot' Also the zoom feature in my camera is of great help.

A good part of what grows in my garden is all for the birds. I have gifted @claudine a papaya. I am sure she will share it with you (lol)

That black bird isn't a crow? I bet they're wishing they were all nice and ripe. Cute!
If you notice carefully there is one that is fully ripe :) That black bird is a cuckoo!

I did see that ripe one, yum, I love papayas and mangos. Lucky birds. I don't know the cuckoo bird. Is it noisy and smart?
