Another birding adventure with Dr Kuan after a day rest at home. This time, we started our day with a visit to Hulu Langat forest for the Silver-breasted Broadbill which we missed 2 days before. From early morning, we waited until 11am for the pair of Broadbill to show up. We also had our views of the White-bellied Woodpecker in the nest and Black-thighed Falconet, one of the smallest raptors in the world.
Right after our lunch break, we headed up to the hill station. Yes. Fraser's Hill again! Although we saw many variety of species but still no sign of our targets. Oh well, at least Dr Kuan saw the Grey Nightjar which is a new species for him (but it was not included in the target list he gave me). In the evening, the weather turned unfavorable for birding. Cold and misty. The following night, we got our view of a Brown Wood Owl on lamp post.
On 25th Feb morning, we only spent a short 2 hours looking for our target. After a long search, we managed to hear it calling from a distance. Unfortunately, it didn't seem to be cooperative enough and with the rain started to pour, we decided to leave the hill station and try our luck at the Gap. Looks like the rain keep following us everywhere. It didn't give us much time to look for birds. We continued our journey back to KL.
