You mean you haven’t got your Green Broadbills yet! It’s the usual reaction that I get from other bird photographers/ birders when I tell them that I’ve yet to photograph this Broadbill. Finally I can close the book on Broadbills after photographing my lastl species taht can be seen here in Malaysia. The day started with this beautiful female
The male has black ear coverts , has more feathers on the upper mandilble
It seems that the female is more approachable and tend to stay longer on one perch than the male. The same was observed when we saw the female again on 30/07/11. The male came and went in a matter of a few seconds. Most probably the same female shot on 30/07/11 |
Congrats! on your excellent capture....at last you've got all the broadbills in Malaysia...
