Rufescent Prinias

10th July 2010, Kemensah, Selangor.

A pair of   Rufescent Prinias were flying around the area. I think they have a nest in a nearby  bushes. Lately I see a lot of Prinias, both the Yellow-bellied and the Rufescent  are very active and  easy to spot.

Birds of Bentong

22nd & 23rd  May 2010, Bentong, Pahang. We had a family gathering  at my brother-in-law’s orchard, a beautiful place  on high ground with the hills of Bentong as the backdrop. I was curious as to what species of bird  I would find there. Spent 2 hours on Saturday afternoon and 3 hours Sunday morning  to see what I could photograph. The result was quite interesting.

A male Velvet-Fronted Nuthatch A male White-Rumped Shama Buff-Vented Bulbul Spectacled Bulbul Common Iora Three Brown Barbets Blyth's Hawk Eagle Orange-Bellied Flowerpecker (shot by Ilyas)   This place also yielded a lifer  for me, a Black-Throated Babbler which was posted earlier

A male Black & Yellow Broadbill A family of Chestnut-Winged Babblers Rufescent Prinia  Male & female Orange-Backed Woodpeckers   Wreathed Hornbill  (shot by Ilyas)   Male Blue-Winged Leafbird  (shot by Ilyas)   Either a female Brown-Throated  or Red throated Sunbird  (shot by Ilyas).  I’m more inclined to go for the latter  because of the orange tinge at the throat.
