Go ‘Green’ : Iora

18th April 2010, Kemensah, Selangor.

The Green Ioras are the less commonly seen species of Ioras in Kemensah. Restless and hyperactive most of the time  remaining between the leaves, they are difficult  to shoot. This is a male.

Greenham Common? No They’re Green & Common.

18th  December 2009, Kemensah, Selangor No, this is not about Britain’s nuclear history. It’s about Ioras,  birds of the lowland forest. One is Green and the other is Common. The Green Iora is not so common whereas the Common Iora as the name suggests, is quite common. Confused?  Ha ha, have a guess at  which is which.

Well done, you guessed right!
