This young boy has shinned up a small tree to hang a birdtrap. The trap was quite ingenious. It already contained a bird which was being used as bait to attract other birds. The trap was constructed with an inner cage holding the bait and an outer cage at the front with a lid. Although I didnt see it in operation, I presume that when another bird was attracted, it went into the front cage to face the bait bird. As the space was quite small, this action would inevitably bring the lid down trapping the new bird. This picture was taken on the east coast of Phuket.
