a common look bird that easily missed , but it is rare and difficult to photograph due to mostly canopy and shy .

I always want to get eye level of this bird to look it close, and lucky day for me and my friend, we were been block by falling tree, raining season etc but it still giving us fruitful half day .

this bird we shoot ~1000m asl and we were surprised

– it is a start of the month with this bird even high view compare to the previous sightings. But this bird keep making call make other sightings different.

– 美好的9月，刚开始就拿下这鸟。虽然很高可是有点不同，这只一直叫不停。

– while the tour ended, everyone talking about bird of the tour. Garnet Pitta, Giant Pitta, Bornean Ground-Cuckoo, Blue-headed Pitta, Whiteheads’ Broadbill. But think only me choose this, it is a rare occasion or minimum for me to see it ~10 feet away and ~10 feet from ground and stay for long for us.

– 当我们的行程要结束时。每个人都会选他们的最喜欢的鸟。每个人都很难选，榴红八色鸫，大蓝八色鸫，黑喉绿阔嘴鸟, 婆罗洲地鹃，等。可是我还是喜欢这鸟。我几乎没见过它这么近这么低。

– another hot day, while we walking in the forest. I heard some weird call (never heard before) and very soon a brown bird perch nearby and very soon David say “Honeyguide” ! the bird flip the wing non stop and may be making some call but not able to record it… may be it is the “guiding” action ?

– 非常热的一天。当我们在林子里走，突然听到很怪的叫声。不久后，有只棕色的鸟飞过来。DAVID站在那树下，叫了。”Honeyguide”。这鸟很奇怪，一只展开翅膀。可能想带我们去找蜜？
