Bird watching in raichur- part 2

Continuation rom my previous post

This Coppersmith barbet  was staying opposite to my house, literally right in front of my house. I watched him from the beginning of building nest , hatching the young ones, to leaving the place. Here is the photo journey.
Note there is only one entrance(hole) in the branch
 
 Building the second entrance 
 
doing the hard work
 
feeling tired
 
Successfully completed the nest
 
It took 2 months to take these photos. Having seen a bird build a nest , hatch young ones from close quarters is a special feeling for any bird watcher, that too this is my first stay away from home, and also first sighting of coppersmith barbet.
