update 202506

It was raining when we arrived at the national park, so we stayed near the hut and continued birding while waiting for it to stop. To our surprise, a Bornean Green-Magpie appeared during the wait. Not long after, the rain stopped—and we were rewarded with a Black-sided Flowerpecker perched perfectly for photos. As we continued on in search of more target birds, this beauty showed up again—right at eye level for everyone to enjoy and capture. A truly lucky day!

当我们抵达国家公园时正下着雨,于是我们留在小屋附近,一边等待雨停一边继续观鸟。没想到在等待过程中,一只婆罗洲绿鹊出现了。没过多久,雨停了,我们又幸运地遇到了一只黑胁啄花鸟,刚好停在一个绝佳的位置让我们拍照。接着我们继续前进寻找其他目标鸟时,这只美丽的小鸟再次现身,甚至出现在视线平齐的位置,大家都拍得很尽兴。真是幸运的一天!

update 202505

One of Borneo’s most sought-after birds had remained quiet for the second morning in a row. However, shortly after we began our walk, we had a close encounter—though not a clear view—of both this elusive bird and the Bare-headed Laughingthrush. Not long after, David called out that he had heard the Fruit-hunter about 500 meters away. Everyone rushed to the spot, and soon enough, we all enjoyed excellent views of the bird.

婆罗洲最令人渴望的一种鸟类之一,已经连续第二个早晨保持安静。然而,在我们开始徒步不久后,便近距离遇见了这只神秘的鸟和裸头噪鹛,尽管视线不太清晰。不久,大卫打电话来他在约500米外听到了果猎鸫的叫声。大家立刻奔向那个地点,没过多久,所有人都欣赏到了这只鸟的绝佳身影。

– a pretty common Sulawesi lowland endemic

A spectacular chestnut-backed thrush with striking white facial patches, black-and-white wings, and bold pied markings below. Juvenile shows buff streaks on crown and back and buff throat. Terrestrial, feeding on the forest floor singly or in pairs within the lowlands and low hills. Unmistakable within its limited range on islands of Sulawesi and Kabaena. Mournful song is a phrase of several high-pitched whistled notes, “deee-der-doo” or “deee-der.” Calls include “chak” notes and a high-pitched “peep” call. [Ebird]

update 202511

Compared to all my past visits, this bird has been surprisingly easy to photograph during the last two trips to Tangkoko—both within just two weeks! Still took some effort to get a clean shot, but it was definitely worth it. Such a lovely and stunning Sulawesi endemic!

相比之前的所有造访,这两周内连续两次在Tangkoko拍到这只鸟变得格外容易!当然还是花了一些功夫才拍到干净的画面,但一切都很值得。
苏拉威西非常漂亮又迷人的特有种!

update 202602

It’s a busy start to the year! We kicked things off with a very long drive due to the holiday traffic, followed by a specialized photography tour with two lovely and incredibly patient guests. One of our main targets for this trip was this beauty—it’s a shame they’re still a bit shy this season, but what a wonderful bird to start off 2026.

今年年初非常忙碌。由于长假期间交通拥堵,我们先是经历了一段长时间的旅程,随后便与两位亲切且极具耐心的客人开启了专项寻鸟之旅。这是我们此行的主要目标之一,可惜在这个季节它们还是有些害羞,但能以这么优美的鸟儿开启2026年,真的非常美好。

update 202508

This was a truly special tour for us, focusing on a very important target species. After two days of only hearing it without any sighting, we finally had an amazing view—right in front of the four of us, and even calling!

Such a memorable family trip—got all three special bird families: Rail-Babbler, Crested Jayshrike, and Bornean Bristlehead, all with photos too!

这是我们非常重要的一次特别行程,目标是非常特别的一种鸟。前两天只能听到声音,完全看不到,终于让我们在四人面前看到它,还在我们面前鸣叫!

一次难忘的家庭旅程,我们成功看到三种特别鸟类:棘头鵙、冠鸦和白眉长颈鸫,而且都有拍到照片!

update 202503

Just another moment captured with this beautiful yet shy bird. I’m accustomed to situations where people alter the environment—making it brighter and more open—just for the sake of photos, which can affect the bird’s natural behavior. However, that doesn’t diminish my happiness, especially with my birding buddy back in action after finally deciding to get his 400mm F2.8 following a slowdown in birding. Exciting times ahead, as I have more personal birding trips coming up soon!

 

又一次捕捉到这只美丽而害羞的鸟儿。

我已经习惯了有人为了拍照而改变环境——让它更明亮、更开阔——从而影响鸟类的自然行为。

但这并不会影响我的快乐,尤其是我的观鸟伙伴终于决定入手 400mm F2.8 镜头,在观鸟节奏放缓后再次回归。

接下来,我也有更多个人观鸟之旅要开启,令人期待!

– a quick check before few Rail-babbler groups, arrived welcome by rain (YES, raining again) after Malaysian-Eared Nighjar, Crested Shrikejay… begin my Rail-babbler quick tour. very soon I arrived my friend “spot” put a hide and wait. not long wait the bird calling but it keep quiet after few call. Not a long wait, it stand near the bush edge. – 为了接下来的“白眉长颈鸫”团,到了马来西亚最好的点之一(其实还是觉得吉隆波的鸟点比较有把握)。一大早到了,可是没办法出去。(下雨,对又下雨) 先看到马来毛腿夜鹰,可是没停。之后很快与5只冠鸦玩了一会。就开始慢慢找这非常高需要的鸟。先到朋友给我。等没多久,鸟叫了。可是很快又没声音了。可是我也不大意。周围看看,很快看到这鬼鬼祟祟的站那看我。

– seem like no more chance to have a better view of this rare and shy bird in the near future.
– years ago, I told my buddy I got this bird in this location but he never believes until he got leeches to bite, and record a shot of the bird.

– 非常害羞的稀有鳥。在這個點,我的鳥友。不相信我在這拍到這鳥。可是當他見到於拍到,他也被馬蟥咬了喝多口。
