Hi Vijay,
One such tree is the Devil's tree/ Scholar's tree [Alstonia scholaris] locally called Satvin. Birds and animals generally shun this tree because of its poisonous nature.
With regards,
Neil Soares.

Hi there,

 

Birds may shun the tree with re to feeding on its flowers/fruits, however, the Alstonia too cannot entirely keep birds away. I have seen at least three species of birds roosting the nights in the dense leafy foliage of this tree.

 

only we - Homo sapiens - have the power to repel birds yet the birds beat us on that front too. Whatever we do, there is some bird to make the most of that situation.

Dear Dr Neil,

We respect your views but our experience is different. We had seen Black-lored Tits (Parus xanthogenys) on this tree at Mt Abu (Sirohi, Rajasthan) several times. Devil's Tree is planted at several places on Abu Hills.

If we are wrong please correct us but this was the seen we observed while documenting for Mt Abu.

Wishes

I have seen House Crows nesting in this tree (Rain tree- Samanea saman) in plenty. Plus it's liked & visited by so many birds.

Hello All Tree Loving Friends, I am attaching a copy of the notification of the Govt. of Gujarat allowing felling of some vernacular (deshi kul) trees without permit which, prior to this notification, was mandatory to get even to cut a branch of these trees. Can the object put forward in the notification sounds reasonable, does this decision fits to common sense? Please put forward your suggessions. Regards, Jaidev.
