Presently the only sighting in the Klang Valley is the Taman Botani Shah Alam which has seen hordes of birders descending on the bird site.
This little migratory fella is still so wary of human presence that viewing and shooting has to be done behind trees and at a distance. Hopefully if it stayed long enough it would be less sensitive. Nevertheless its gorgeous colours are unmistakable even from a distance.
The presence of this rare bird once again proves how strategic Taman Rimba Kiara is to migratory birds. My personal record has shown that more than 10 species of migratory birds have been sighted here since the migratory period started in late August last year, truly incredible for an urban park!
