Yellow-bellied Prinia




This bird never sits still and hard to shoot unless it calls or preening. Once you spot it at one place or branch when it calls and you miss it, you standby and wait at that place. It will come again there. Happy birding.

Little Ring Plover




No many waders found this season and this is probably due to bad monsoon occured around Sabah and effect their flight destination. Happy birding.

Eurasian Tree Sparrow.






This bird has a different pattern of plumage but I got high feeling that this bird has leucistic feathers. Happy birding.

Whimbrel











I have not sighted any new waders to be added to my bird list and this whimbrel is sighted from far and I always hope it is a Little Curlew. Anyhow glad to see this bird again and last sighted was last year. Happy bird.

Yellow-bellied Flowerpecker





Another little bird 'chitting' after pecking a neighbor's mango. It is keeping me out of the house and wait for it to fly to my mango tree. Happy birding.
