  A group of three | People have asked me whether it’s true that there are Great Slaty Woodpeckers in Kemensah (most recently during the MNS outing to Kemensah on 10th January 2010) . They are huge woodpeckers, probably the biggest in this region. Yes, I have seen them but that was the one and only one time and I’ve not seen any since. These long-range record shots were taken on 15th March 2009 before I started this Blog. |
Wow!.. you found the Largest Woodpecker in the world. Rare finding.
ReplyDeleteI search the net for this species pictures from the Peninsular Malaysia - only 2 pictures;-
1. Great Slaty Woodpecker, 17 May 2003 by Tee Lian Huat -Kuala Gandah.
2. 27.12.2006 - by TS Chien, location not mention.
Most of the pictures are from Sabah and Thailland.
Congratulation!
What a great sighting! I wish this bird still in the area.
