A casual trip with a regular guest to Fraser's Hill with no particular target species in mind. For almost the entire period up in the hill station, the weather was unfortunately not birding-friendly. Only 1 morning walk provided good clear weather. And that was rather a good session with lots of bird waves and I believe my guest had a lifer with good views of Bay Woodpecker (this species was calling at almost all the places we went to). On a late afternoon we had excellent view of a pair of Red-headed Trogon.

Silver-eared Mesia

Streaked Wren-babbler unexpectedly appear next to me while I was waiting for bird wave. This photograph was taken with Nikon D7000 + Sigma 500mm f4.5
Large Niltava is one of the most cooperative bird and commonly seen perching on wires by the roadside. Usually there should be a female nearby too but somehow could not get a view of his partner. Photo taken with Nikon D7000 + Sigma 500mm f4.5
This Little Pied Flycatcher was showing the typical flycatcher behavior - flying out and back to the same perch and that was how I managed to spot this small sized bird high up. Photo taken with Nikon D7000 + Sigma 500mm f4.5
