Jungle Lore Birding Lodge boasts a rich diversity of flora, including 27 tree species, 60 shrubs, 5 grass species, and numerous ferns. This varied vegetation creates an ideal habitat for a wide array of bird species, making it a haven for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts alike. On March 8th, 2024, at the Jungle Lore campus, I observed a black-throated tit constructing its nest amidst the Mexican devil (Ageratina adenophora) Bushes. 

The nest was composed of moss, lichen, spider webs, and various plant materials. This highlights the intricate nesting behavior of the black-throated tit and its ability to utilize diverse natural resources for nest building within the vibrant ecosystem of the Jungle Lore campus. The breeding season for Black-throated Tit typically begins in March and lasts until June
