Tiger Shrike [Moulting]

9th February 2016, Kemensah, Selangor

Local Name:  Tirjup Rimau

Scientific Name: Lanius tigrinus

Equipment: Nikon 1 V3 + Nikkor AFS-VR 400mm f/2.8 ED-VR

Drying herself after taking a dip  in a  nearby stream. Surely a most welcomed relief especially on a hot day like this.  She appears to be moulting, growing the distinctive grey and black feathers on the head.
