We were treated with so much hospitality at the farmer’s little palace. The garden was a true beauty with all types of vegetables grown. And it was a bird paradise. A coconut tree was full of these birds, (we call them WADU (means carpenter) birds and their nests. It was such a beautiful housing scheme. Wadu bird is such a crafty nest builder and tourists have a high demand on them. But its illegal to sell them or their nests.
