I found this Barbet nesting. Unfortunately it was low light conditions, but hoping to get a better shot in the coming days. Taiwan Barbet (Megalaima nuchalis; formerly; Megalaima oorti nuchalis)
Taken at Kanyakumari. The electric pole and the wires serve as a playground for these Coppersmith Barbet.
The Coppersmith Barbet, Crimson-breasted Barbet or Coppersmith (Megalaima haemacephala), is a bird with crimson forehead and throat which is best known for its metronomic call that has been likened to a coppersmith striking metal with a hammer.

The Black-browed Barbet or Müller's Barbet (Megalaima oorti) is a bird belonging to the Asian barbet family, Megalaimidae.
It is 20-23.5 cm long. The plumage is mostly green apart from the head which is patterned with blue, yellow and red. There is a black stripe above the eye. The bill is black and the feet are grey-green. The Chinese name for the bird, "five-colored bird" (五色鳥) refers to the five colors seen on its plumage. Because of its colorful plumage and that its call resembles that of a percussion instrument known as a wooden fish, the species is also referred to as the "spotted monk of the forest" in Taiwan.

五色鳥（學名：Megalaima nuchalis）[1]，因其羽毛有五種顏色而得名。
身長約20～23公分，喙基上黑色嘴鬚發達，身體多為翠綠色，頭部大部份為藍色，額頭和喉部有黃色分佈，眼先和前頸有小部份紅色，眼部至耳羽上方則為黑色，粗厚嘴部為黑色，腳鉛灰色。叫聲單調而響亮，類似敲木魚「叩叩叩……」[2]，又因其羽色多彩繽紛，而被稱作「花和尚」。在繁殖時會啄樹洞為巢。
