– It had been lucky day, while driving we saw a beautiful Blyth’s Paradise-Flycatcher and decided to make a stop. I hard some weird call, but everyone seem interested on the flycatcher as we already seen the Bristlehead. But one of the guest just spot it and they are low and nearby. Bingo ! The lucky just continue, the car opposite us told us there are many elephant on the road !!!, we just stop looking at the Bristlehead and drive for the Elephant and we did see ~12 of them and this is 2nd sight for the Borneo pygmy elephant

 

– 非常幸运的一天,还以为只是坐车到目的地后就休息。希望在路程可以看些普普通通的鸟就过了这么一天。可是,在半路中我看到了中南寿带。就停了下来,客人们都看到高高兴兴的。可是我听到奇怪的声音,我说可能是棘头鵙。可是他们都没什么兴趣,因为大家都看过了。可是在找寿带间,其中一位客人尽然看到了好几只棘头鵙就在不高/远处。就让我拍下来了。可是我们的运气还是很好,对头车。让我们知道前方尽然有象!我们二话不说立刻前往,也第二次看到婆羅洲侏儒象

– what a lucky group who got this bird in close (~10 feet) feeding with various food.

– a very special Borneo endemic which almost all birders #1 target. But for the lucky photography group, after Whitehead’s Trogon, Broadbill, Fruithunter, Bulwer’s Pheasant, Black-crowned Pitta and many more follow by this with real good moment and pictures. (and not the end yet with better endemic after this)

– 非常幸运的客人,看到这鸟2次还在近距离见这鸟吃东西还拍下很好的一些照片。

– 除了这每个鸟人的主打鸟,在这前还近距离拍到

黑头八色鸫,灰胸咬鹃,黑喉绿阔嘴鸟,食果鸫, 鳞背鹇等。

– 客人的运气还没完,这鸟后还拍到另几种婆罗洲稀有特有种
