    I think you are quite safe as long as you are not taking 500mm macro shots on them...

    With the 500mm you can shoot from the rooftop, safer.
    Anyway is there any other birds around your area? I mean the feathered kind

    Only Yellow vented bulbuls, Sunbirds, Oriole....etc. Common birds and nothing special.
