Streaked Wren-Babbler: Can never get enough

23rd April 2011, Gunung Ulu Kali, Genting Highlands, Pahang

 

I just love Wren-Babblers, I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of shooting  this little bird. They look like some prehistoric bird with the scaly feathers on their back.. Most of the time you would only see them when they  suddenly jump out from the bushes/ ferns . This time I managed to capture them before they start hopping on the ground like kangaroos.

As usual, picking moths which had fallen to the ground.

A confiding Streaked Wren-Babbler got  really close to my camera.  The weather wasn’t exactly the best  for photography but luckily the thick fog and drizzle didn’t hamper my attempt to capture this little beauty.
