before we go any further, this is a swiftlet. It's a small brown and black bird who's nests are a highly
sought after delicacy. Here in the Philippines, people
eat them in a soup called, well, Bird's Nest Soup. Typically, these nests are
found high, high up on cliffs.
Super hard to get to. - [Eddie] (speaking in a foreign language) - [Commentator] So when
these birds moved in, Eddie didn't kick them out, instead he gave them half his home. - [Eddie] (speaking in a foreign language) - [Commentator] So they
boil it, add some veggies, a bit of meat and voila: bird's nest soup. - [Eddie] (speaking in a foreign language) (lively piano music) - [Commentator] Understandably so.
Some people, they just
can't appreciate the smell of 80,000 birds worth of droppings. But Eddie and the swiftlets
have an arrangement. - [Eddie] (speaking in a foreign language) (harmonic dinging).
