The firmiana malayana or mata lembu, remains here in testimony to man's care-less-ness - its tree had since been felled. Let not the birds leave too.

Almost 'paradise' encounter

 A brown-morph Amur Paradise Flycatcher (Terpsiphone incei)(Murai-Gading Utara), a first winter/sub-adult and possibly female, was only one of a few that came my way as I idled up at the bukit, a healthy number I reckoned that had made their way here to transit.


What's in a name?
I guess adding 'gading' or ivory to a common name like 'murai' or magpie does elevate an avian status.


Always a delightful moment when one ventured down.


And Yes, it's OUR territory.


And Yes again!


One of many successes!


And a pause for for a dust-off.
