| 9/28/thru 10/4/12 Borneo - A trip of a lifetime to Sabah, Malaysia (tho we hope to go back!) was made with a special thanks to Jason and John at http://horukuru.blogspot.com who were both wonderful birders and guides. Thanks so much, guys! (They also organize the yearly Borneo Bird Festival which looked wonderful but we had to miss due to travel.) We birded some in Sepilok Reserve, on the Kinabatangan River, Mt. Kinabalu, and the coast near Kota Kinabalu. Each place was fabulous! |
| 9/30/12 Kinabatangan River, Borneo: A special treat was seeing the endangered Storm's Stork! A Stork-billed Kingfisher came out in great light while a Red-billed Malkoha worked the canopy above us. A White-chested Babbler with juveniles was calling from the banks and came out to see what was happening. Also, a Whiskered Tern and Yellow-vented Bulbul juveniles. |
| 9/30/12 and 10/1/12 Kinabatangan River, Borneo: The endangered Storm's Stork interacting with a Great Egret was exciting to see. Also, an Oriental Pied Hornbill pair , a Purple Heron , a mixed Egret flock, a Long-tailed Parakeet flock in flight, a Green Imperial Pigeon , an Oriental Darter study , and finally a Crested Goshawk and a lone pic of what appears to be a Jerdon's Baza (from the head shape and specked shoulders.) |
