update 202412

I still remember that quiet, hot afternoon. Despite spotting this bird, the guests showed little excitement due to the humidity. Everyone had a good view, and I took the opportunity to move to the back for a great photo session with this rare trogon.

我仍然记得那个安静而炎热的下午。尽管看到了这只鸟,但由于湿热,客人们没表现出多少兴奋。大家都看得很清楚,我则抓住机会走到后面,为这只罕见的咬鹃拍了一组精彩的照片。

update 202604

It was a scorching afternoon. After successfully spotting our targets—including the Green Broadbill, Black-and-white Bulbul, and Bar-bellied Cuckooshrike—we were waiting by a fruiting tree for more activity. Suddenly, this bird flew in and perched high up. While it wasn’t the best position for photos, everyone had a great view of this stunning hornbill. Then, it flew directly to the fruiting tree at eye level. Truly an incredible moment.

那是一个非常炎热的下午。在记录到绿阔嘴鸟、黑白鹎和斑腹鹃鵙等目标后,我们继续在果树旁守候。突然,这只鸟飞来停在高处,起初并不利于拍摄,但大家还是清晰地观察到了这只美丽的犀鸟。过了一会儿,它直接飞向果树,停在与视线齐平的位置,场面令人惊叹。
