– after spent 5 days in lowland forest without ours’ target, decided to spend last day in other kind of forest to have some new tick for customer. Never prepare anything, no worm just go to the “feeding spot” and wait. This bird appear and stand for long for us .. so this consider “feeding” ? (for me yes as without the feeding activities the bird wont be there for us)
– this Pitta would be mist difficult Pitta for myself, exclude the feeding spot picture or sighting. I have only 2 open 1-2s moment to have pictures and total <30s view over the years .. who have non feeding picture ? I know my best buddy and I spent our days and weeks …
– 在森林5天没看到目标鸟，客人还是觉得用最后一天到不一样海拔的森林看看一些新鸟种。我们决定到福隆港，到这“喂食点”我们没准备什么“虫” 就在哪等，这鸟也傻傻的出来让我们看/拍。很多人可能觉得，我都美喂。这不是喂食的哦。对我来讲还是喂的吧，人家不喂。这鸟不会傻傻来这里啦。
– 这八色鸫算是马来西亚最难拍的八色鸫吧。野拍/看，我也只有1-2秒时间看到全开拍照的一刻。看到这鸟也不会超过30秒（过去15年）。可是这鸟让我想起我最要好的朋友。。。。。。

– This bird was calling in the afternoon where we park ours’ car. I heard from far, no long the bird gave us good view and photography
– 原本6 天的橙腰咬鹃团，可是这个季节鸟真的没什么活动。去了3个较好机会的森林都很安静。几乎都没什么鸟叫。
– 在其中一天，这鸟在我们停车点叫。我大喊了一下，跑去看这鸟。没很久，就看到拍到。对我来讲还是不错，可是客人来是要橙腰咬鹃啊

– always a beautiful bird to be seen, lovely and big bird.
– this is a picture captured with CANON RF100500 with 1.4x TC which gave us very good image quality with 140mm – 700mm with 700mm at F10. I use it quite often .. for birding, it is always need longer focal length. with the new CANON RF200-800 even it is F9 at the longer side. But with the new camera better ISO performance and new denoise software. the light weight 800mm definite one of the best option for birding … I am waiting …. lets see when I have it on hand
now, the 800mm at F9, longer focal length with “smaller” aperture and overall smaller size, lighter… so what’s the reason to complaint ?
– 佳能过去几年，轻便的长焦镜头一直被看低就因为一个500mm (短），F7.1 （慢） 可是很多不知道或不接受。F6.3-F7.1 就1/3 stop .. 真的这么大分别？可是有想过重量？ 1.4kg 是多么的适合我们一天8-12小时在外面的鸟人。可是，这个500 就，真的有点短。我也很经常用上1.4x ，就可以有700mm 可是就上到F10. 可是画质我还是觉得，非常的好。现在，佳能终于出了支200-800 为了重量体型，他们应该不得放到F6.3-F9 ..可是还在2KG 。还是重，可是想想800mm F9 长了，光圈也比之前100500+ 1.4 大了。价格也低下来了。之前其他牌子也是把它换到“白”然后也不是最高级别的镜头才把价格拉低。这也应该大概一样的道理。只是我本身还是希望，有基本防尘，雨功能。等等200800 的到来吧。
