1. Long-tailed Widowbird, 长尾巧织雀, 長尾寡婦鳥, Euplectes progne, コクホウジャク

update 202501

While busy recovering some accidentally deleted pictures, I wanted to share part of a full series capturing this beautiful long-tailed bird’s display and mating behavior. I really enjoy watching how this bird performs—it sometimes flies vertically, resembling a stick in motion.

在忙着恢复一些意外删除的照片时，我想分享这一整套系列中的部分内容，捕捉了这只美丽的长尾鸟展示和求偶的画面。我非常喜欢观看这只鸟的表演——它有时会垂直飞行，像一根竖直的棍子一样。

202501 Mkuze Game Reserve, South Africa#####

CANON R1, CANON RF100500mm, 1.4x South Africa update 202501 Finally, I’m back from my South Africa tour! One of the most fascinating “common” birds we encountered was the Pin-tailed Whydah. While it’s not a rare species, its long tail and unique flying style captured our attention more than any other bird. This particular moment happened while we were in the car—yes, shooting handheld through the window! After taking hundreds of photos of the male flying, displaying, and mating, I decided to switch to video. Although I recorded in 4K 60p, I slowed down the second half to highlight the incredible beauty of its dance.

终于从南非之旅回来了！旅途中看到的最迷人的“常见”鸟类之一就是针尾维达雀。虽然它并不罕见，但它那长长的尾巴和独特的飞行姿态比其他任何鸟类都更吸引我们的目光。这段拍摄是在车里完成的——是的，手持相机透过车窗拍摄！拍了几百张照片，记录下雄鸟飞行、炫耀和交配的瞬间后，我决定拍摄视频。虽然我用4K 60帧录制，但在后半部分慢放，展现它舞蹈的惊人美感。

#####

A fairly common bird in South Africa, often seen gracefully flying around with its stunning long tail, offering us an incredible view.

在南非，这是一种相当常见的鸟，常常可以看到它优雅地飞翔，拖着令人惊叹的长尾，为我们呈现出绝美的景象。

2. Pin-tailed Whydah, 针尾维达雀, 針尾維達雀, Vidua macroura, テンニンチョウ

update 202501

A male bird with a very long tail, black-and-white plumage, and a striking red beak is hard to miss. While the local guide claimed it was common, we didn’t spot many during our first seven days. However, we were fortunate to see one performing a display for a female, which thrilled everyone. Capturing the moment from the car was quite challenging, but it was an unforgettable experience.

一只拥有非常长尾巴、黑白羽毛和鲜红喙的雄鸟，非常显眼。虽然当地向导说这种鸟很常见，但我们在前七天里并没有看到很多。不过，我们很幸运看到了一只正在为雌鸟表演。这让我们所有人都非常兴奋，而在车内拍摄这景象也是一个不小的挑战，但这是一次难忘的经历。

3. Livingstone’s Turaco, 利氏蕉鹃, 綠頭冠蕉鵑, Tauraco livingstonii, リビングストンエボシドリ

update 202501

The overall green coloration, accompanied by a low crest and blue body, is a key target for our group. In the first few days, it seemed fairly common, as its calls and presence could be heard and seen by everyone. However, capturing a photograph proved to be quite challenging—much like our Malkoha, it kept moving between the trees and bushes. Fortunately, just before the heavy rain, we were lucky enough to find one that stayed still for a while, allowing us to capture it.

整体呈绿色，带有低冠和蓝色身体，这是我们团队的主要目标之一。在最初的几天里，它似乎相当常见，大家都能听到它的叫声并看到它的身影。然而，要拍到它的照片却相当困难——就像我们的鸦鹃一样，它总是在树丛间移动。幸运的是，就在大雨来临之前，我们有幸遇到了一只停留了很长时间，让我们成功捕捉到了它的身影。

4. Burchell’s Coucal, 白眉鸦鹃, 白眉鴉鵑, Centropus superciliosus burchellii, マミジロバンケン

update 202501

A fairly common coucal found in South Africa, which I’ve seen and photographed multiple times in various locations. However, this was a closer encounter, and I managed to capture a full series of flight shots. The distinctive tail band markings are clearly visible, making it easy to differentiate this species from others.

一种在南非相当常见的郭公鸟，我曾多次在不同地点看到并拍摄过。然而，这次距离更近，我成功捕捉到了一整组飞行照片。显眼的尾部条纹清晰可见，使其与其他物种容易区分开来。

5. European Roller, 蓝胸佛法僧, 藍胸佛法僧, Coracias garrulus, ニシブッポウソウ

update 20501

In South Africa’s western region, this season is perfect for birdwatching as many common species are abundant. It’s been an enjoyable time spotting various targets, with the bonus of encountering a few truly stunning birds along the way.

在南非的西部地區，這個季節是觀鳥的最佳時期，許多常見的鳥類都很活躍。我們在尋找各種目標的同時，也有幸看到了一些非常美麗的鳥類，讓人感到非常愉快。

6. Shaft-tailed Whydah, 箭尾維達雀, 箭尾维达雀, Vidua regia, ミカドスズメ

A small whydah with a reddish-orange bill and legs. The breeding male has buffy-orange underparts and neck, a dark cap, and 17-centimeter-long black tail feathers. The female and non-breeding male have streaky upperparts and pale buffy underparts. Breeding males hold territories in dry thorn scrub, but form flocks with other seedeaters after breeding. The species imitates the song of the Violet-eared Waxbill, which it parasitizes. Differs from the similar Pin-tailed Whydah by Shaft-tailed Whydah’s duller pink bill and streakier head in female and non-breeding male plumages, and black-and-buff plumage of the breeding male. [EBird]

一种小型织雀，具有橙红色的嘴和腿。繁殖期的雄鸟腹部和颈部呈橙黄色，头部为深色，并具有长达17厘米的黑色尾羽。雌鸟和非繁殖期的雄鸟则具有上部的条纹花纹和浅橙黄色的腹部。繁殖期的雄鸟在干燥的荆棘灌丛中占领领地，但繁殖后会与其他食种子鸟类混群。该物种模仿其寄生对象——紫耳蜡嘴雀的鸣叫声。与相似的针尾织雀相比，轴尾织雀的嘴较暗淡，为粉红色，雌鸟和非繁殖期雄鸟头部条纹更多，而繁殖期雄鸟则呈黑色与橙黄色的羽毛。

update 202501

What a beautiful little bird with its unique four racket-shaped tail feathers! Unfortunately, I couldn’t manage to capture any great shots of it this time. It’s definitely on my photography bucket list if I get the chance to visit Africa again. Despite the whole day of rain, we were lucky enough to witness some wonderful moments of it in flight.

Anyone want join me next visit ?

多么美丽的小鸟，拥有独特的四根球拍状尾羽！可惜这次没能拍到好的照片。如果有机会再来非洲，它绝对是我的摄影目标之一。尽管下了一整天的雨，我们还是很幸运地见到了它飞行的美好瞬间。

有人要来看他吗？

7. Dideric Cuckoo, 白眉金鹃, 白眉金鹃, Chrysococcyx caprius, ブロンズミドリカッコウ

A small, greenish cuckoo. The male has barred flanks, white flecking on the wing, white patches in front of and behind the eye, and a distinctly red eye surrounded by a red eye-ring. The bronzy-green female has a diagnostic white patch in front of the eye, a plain back, and white patches in the wings. This common resident and migrant is not a habitat specialist, but it prefers riverine and wetland areas where its preferred brood-parasite hosts, weavers and bishops, are common. The distinctive call is a loud, rising, high-pitched “deee-deee-deee-deee-dederik”. [EBird]

一种体型较小、呈绿色的杜鹃鸟。雄鸟体侧有横纹，翅膀上带有白色斑点，眼前和眼后有白斑，眼睛为鲜红色，周围有红色眼圈。雌鸟呈青铜绿色，眼前有明显的白斑，背部纯色，翅膀上有白斑。这种常见的留鸟和迁徙鸟对栖息地要求不高，但更偏好河流和湿地地区，因为那里有它们寄生繁殖的首选宿主——织巢鸟和红衣主教雀。其独特的叫声为响亮而逐渐升高的高音“deee-deee-deee-deee-dederik”。

update 202501

A very beautiful and common cuckoo, often heard in almost any environment. However, it rarely perches because its calls attract other birds, especially weavers, that chase it away. The best chances to spot it are while it’s in flight, and we were fortunate to see it flying past us many times.

一种非常美丽且常见的杜鹃鸟，几乎可以在任何环境中听到它的叫声。然而，它很少停栖，因为它的叫声会吸引其他鸟类，特别是织巢鸟，将它赶走。观察它的最佳机会是在飞行时，我们很幸运多次看到它从我们面前飞过。

8. Greater Flamingo, 大红鹳, 大紅鸛, Phoenicopterus roseus, ヨーロッパフラミンゴ

update 20250120

The flamingo was the final bird of our 18-day South Africa bird photography trip. During the morning session, we struggled with either facing the wrong direction or dealing with distance challenges. However, just before heading back, a few of them flew gracefully toward us in perfect light, as if bidding us farewell. We ended the trip with over 356 bird species, 20+ mammals, and several reptiles captured in photographs. It was an incredible journey filled with fun, great company, delicious food, and valuable lessons in patience (especially when waiting for meals).

火烈鸟是我们南非18天观鸟摄影之旅的最后一只鸟。在早晨的拍摄中，我们不是方向不对就是距离受限。然而，就在我们准备返程前，一些火烈鸟迎着完美的光线飞向我们，仿佛是在向我们告别。最终，我们拍摄了超过356种鸟类、20多种哺乳动物以及一些爬行动物。这是一段充满乐趣的旅程，有很棒的团队、美味的食物，还有耐心的宝贵训练（尤其是在等待食物的时候）。

9. African Pygmy-Goose, 厚嘴棉凫, 厚嘴棉鴨, Nettapus auritus, アフリカマメガン

update 202501

It was a rainy morning, but even after spotting our target bird, the Black Coucal, we didn’t let the weather stop us from birding. Just before our breakfast break, we were treated to great views of a Palm-nut Vulture and this tiny duck. We were lucky to see it flying around rather than staying hidden!

这是一个下雨的早晨，即使已经拍到目标鸟-黑胸鸦鹃，我们依然继续观鸟。就在早餐停下来之前，我们幸运地看到了棕榈鹫和这只小鸭子。很幸运能看到它在空中飞翔，而不是藏起来！

10. Gray Crowned-Crane, 灰冕鹤, 灰冠鶴, Balearica regulorum, ホオジロカンムリヅル

update 202501

This bird is incredibly beautiful, and while we may have seen it before in a zoo or bird park, spotting it in the wild and capturing its photo brings an entirely different level of excitement. Though it’s considered a common species, we only managed to see it 3-4 times during our 18 days of birding in South Africa.

这是一种非常美丽的鸟，尽管我们可能在动物园或鸟园里见过，但在野外看到并拍下它的照片，带来的兴奋感完全不同。虽然它被认为是常见的物种，但在我们南非18天的观鸟过程中，也只见到了3-4次。

11. Malachite Sunbird, 辉绿花蜜鸟, 孔雀石色花蜜鳥, Nectarinia famosa, ミドリオナガタイヨウチョウ

update 202501

During our first few days near Sani Pass, this was one bird that caught our attention every time we saw it. Its bright metallic green plumage and long tail were mesmerizing (we even saw it displaying to attract a female). Among the many sunbirds we encountered, this one truly stood out as exceptionally beautiful.

在靠近Sani Pass的最初几天里，每次看到这只鸟都让我们眼前一亮。它那亮丽的金属绿色羽毛和长长的尾巴令人惊叹（我们甚至看到它在炫耀以吸引雌鸟）。在众多太阳鸟中，这只鸟无疑是最为美丽的一种。

12. Swainson’s Spurfowl, 斯氏鹧鸪, 史文森氏鷓鴣, Pternistis swainsonii, クロアシアカノドシャコ

A large brown francolin with a red face and streaked chest, commonly found in the lowlands of South Africa, particularly in Kruger National Park. It is abundant, tame, and often seen walking around or heard calling.

一种体型较大的褐色鹧鸪，面部呈红色，胸部有条纹，常见于南非低地，特别是克鲁格国家公园。它数量众多，性情驯服，经常能看到它们四处走动或听到它们的叫声。

update 202501

A very common francolin in Kruger National Park, we encountered it daily inside the park. It was generally very tame. Once, we saw one trying to display to impress a female, but the female seemed uninterested and ran away. After taking countless photos, we decided to capture it flying across the road — with the CANON R1, it was an effortless shot.

这种鹧鸪在克鲁格国家公园非常常见，我们每天都能在公园里看到它们，整体来说性情非常温顺。有一次，我们看到一只雄鸟试图展示自己来吸引雌鸟，但雌鸟似乎没兴趣，反而跑开了。在拍了无数张照片后，我们决定捕捉它飞越马路的瞬间——用佳能R1拍摄，这样的瞬间简直轻而易举。

Kruger National Park, South Africa

13. White-fronted Bee-eater, 白额蜂虎, 白額蜂虎, Merops bullockoides, シロビタイハチクイ

update 202501

This beautiful Bee-eater was only spotted once, staying within the cactus area where its colors blended perfectly. I was amazed at how the camera managed to find and track the bird. I used the full-screen AF on my R1, which allowed it to detect the bird’s location effortlessly.

这只美丽的蜂虎鸟只被看到了一次，它停留在仙人掌区域，与周围的颜色完美融合。我很惊讶相机能够找到并追踪到它。我使用的是全屏自动对焦功能，这让我的R1能够轻松检测到鸟的位置。

14. African Jacana, 非洲雉鸻, 長腳雉鴴, Actophilornis africanus, アフリカレンカク

update 202501

Here’s another true story of why I prefer using large-capacity memory cards (I’m currently using the Angelbird 1TB CFexpress B). After 18 days of birding, I returned to Malaysia and started editing my photos. That’s when I realized an entire set of pictures was missing—specifically, a series of shots of a bird in flight (it had been flying around us, and I’d managed to capture several sequences).

I checked my SSD, thinking I might have accidentally deleted the folder after downloading, but I couldn’t find anything. As a last resort, I decided to recover the images from the card. Thanks to the large capacity of the card, I had never filled it up completely, which meant the missing files were still recoverable. In the end, I managed to recover the entire series of bird-in-flight shots, as well as some photos of White Rhinos. This experience reinforced the importance of using high-capacity cards!

这又是一个我为什么选择大容量存储卡的真实故事（我目前使用的是 Angelbird 1TB CFexpress B）。在经过18天的观鸟后，我回到马来西亚开始编辑照片时，发现一整组照片不见了——特别是一只鸟飞行的系列照片（当时这只鸟在我们周围飞翔，我拍下了几组飞行镜头）。

我检查了我的SSD，想着可能是在下载后不小心删除了文件夹，但还是找不到。最后的办法是尝试从存储卡中恢复照片。幸运的是，由于卡的容量很大，我从未将它完全填满，所以丢失的文件还可以恢复。最终，我成功从其中一张卡中恢复了这组鸟类飞行的照片，以及一些白犀牛的照片。这次经历让我更加深刻地认识到使用大容量存储卡的重要性！

15. Magpie Shrike, 白肩鹊鵙, 白肩長尾鵲伯勞, Lanius melanoleucus, シロクロオナガモズ

update 202501

Fairly common throughout Kruger National Park, this bird is typically seen moving in groups. Its black-and-white plumage and long tail make it unmistakable. I was fortunate to witness a partridge attempting to scare it off and managed to capture a shot of it flying away.

这种鸟在克鲁格国家公园相当常见，通常成群活动。它的黑白羽毛和长尾巴使其极具辨识度。我有幸目睹一只鹧鸪试图将它赶走，并成功拍下了它飞离的瞬间。

16. Southern Red Bishop, 红寡妇鸟, 紅寡婦鳥, Euplectes orix, オオキンランチョウ

update 202501

One of the most common birds we encountered during our South Africa trip, yet its vibrant bright red plumage made it impossible not to admire. It became the joke of the trip when someone yelled for the car to stop, shouting, “RED Kingfisher!” From then on, everyone jokingly referred to this bird as a Kingfisher for the rest of the journey.

这是我们南非之旅中最常见的鸟类之一，然而它那鲜艳的亮红色羽毛让人无法不为之赞叹。当有人大喊停车，惊呼“红色的翠鸟！”时，它成了我们旅途中的笑料。从那以后，大家在旅途中都开玩笑地把这种鸟称为“翠鸟”。

17. Saddle-billed Stork, 鞍嘴鹳, 凹嘴鸛, Ephippiorhynchus senegalensis, クラハシコウ

A tall, lanky, black-and-white stork with a unique red, yellow, and black bill. The male has dark-brown eyes, and the female has yellow eyes. In flight, the bird’s massive size, and the dark bands in the center of the white wings are diagnostic. Scarce but conspicuous; mostly resident but can be partially nomadic in parts of the range. Found singly or in pairs at rivers and large undisturbed wetlands, foraging for favorites like catfish, but it will also take frogs, birds, and insects. [Ebird]

一种高大、瘦长的黑白相间的鹳，拥有独特的红、黄、黑三色喙。雄性有深褐色的眼睛，而雌性则有黄色的眼睛。在飞行时，这种鸟的巨大体型以及白色翅膀中央的深色条纹是其显著特征。这种鸟虽然稀少但很显眼；主要是留鸟，但在部分分布区域内可能会部分游荡。通常单独或成对出现在河流和未受干扰的大型湿地中，觅食它们最爱的鲶鱼，但也会捕捉青蛙、鸟类和昆虫。

update 202501

It is one of the birds everyone of us dreams of seeing and photographing, with its beak’s vibrant colors being absolutely stunning. We were fortunate to observe it up close, offering great views and excellent photo opportunities.

它是我们梦想亲眼目睹并拍摄的鸟类之一，其喙部鲜艳的色彩绝对令人惊叹。我们非常幸运能够近距离观察它，获得了极佳的观赏视角和绝佳的拍摄机会。

18. Southern Carmine Bee-eater, 南红蜂虎, 南方洋紅蜂虎, Merops nubicoides, ミナミベニハチクイ

update 202501

another bird that I really want to photograph, shame do not have very good opportunity to have good photo but overall good view and good moment for this very special looking Bee-eater.

另一种我一直想拍摄的鸟，可惜没有很好的机会拍到理想的照片。但总体来说，这次观赏体验不错，也度过了与这只外形独特的蜂虎的美好时刻。

19. Violet-backed Starling, 白腹紫椋鸟, 白腹紫椋鳥, Cinnyricinclus leucogaster, シロハラムクドリ

update 202501

Before planning this Africa trip, I was really curious about how a starling could have such a vivid violet color (even though we also have the Violet Cuckoo with a similar hue). I really wanted to photograph this bird in good lighting, despite everyone saying it’s common. But in 17 days, we only had two great opportunities. Now, I’m happy with what I got—until the next visit!

在计划这次非洲之行之前，我一直很好奇一只椋鸟怎么会有如此鲜艳的紫罗兰色（尽管我们这边的紫斑杜鹃也有类似的色调）。我真的很想在好光线下拍摄这只鸟，尽管大家都说它很常见。但在 17 天里，我们只得到了两次很好的机会。现在我对收获感到满意，直到下次再来！

20. Lilac-breasted Roller, 燕尾佛法僧, 燕尾佛法僧, Coracias caudatus, ライラックニシブッポウソウ

update 202501

Another stunning bird that caught our attention—some had lost their long tails. But this one stayed close for quite a while, giving almost everyone the chance to capture a great shot.

另一种吸引我们的美丽鸟类，其中一些失去了长尾羽。但这只鸟停留得很近，而且持续了相当长的时间，让几乎每个人都能拍到好照片。

21. Purple-crested Turaco, 紫冠蕉鹃, 紫冠蕉鵑, Gallirex porphyreolophus, ズグロエボシドリ

update 202502

This is our first Turaco sighting, but it stayed hidden in the bushes for a while. After some waiting, the bird suddenly took flight. Luckily, I had the R1 ready—capturing the moment almost instantly as it happened in a split second.

这是我们第一次看到蕉鹃，但它一直藏在灌木丛中。等待一段时间后，鸟儿突然起飞。幸运的是，我的 R1 已经准备好，几乎瞬间就捕捉到了这转瞬即逝的画面。

update 202501

It’s a stunning bird, and each of the three species we encountered on our tour instantly caught our attention. Even during lunch and shopping, the moment someone shouted “Turaco,” everyone scrambled to grab their cameras again. However, it’s not an easy bird to photograph—it moves through the bushes much like our Malkoha. Among the three species we captured, this one is the most common and, in my opinion, the most beautiful.

这是一种非常美丽的鸟类，我们在旅途中遇到的三种蕉鹃都能瞬间吸引我们的目光。甚至在大家忙着购物和午餐时，只要有人喊了一声“蕉鹃”，所有人都会立刻拿起相机。然而，这种鸟并不容易拍摄，它总是在灌木间穿梭，就像我们的鹃鵙一样。在我们拍摄的三种蕉鹃中，这种是最常见的，对我来说也是最美的。

22. Crowned Hornbill, 冕弯嘴犀鸟, 冕彎嘴犀鳥, Lophoceros alboterminatus, カンムリコサイチョウ

update 202501

It was a late lunch, and the “sushi” took nearly two hours to arrive! But luckily, as we walked into the restaurant, I spotted a Hornbill nesting. I managed to get a few flight shots just by sitting at the table while waiting for lunch. Meanwhile, others went straight to the nest, hoping for a better feeding moment. A small but noisy Hornbill!

这是一个很晚的午餐，而“寿司”竟然等了将近两个小时！不过幸运的是，当我们走进餐厅时，我发现了一只犀鸟正在筑巢。就坐在餐桌上等午餐的间隙，我拍到了几张它的飞行照。而其他人则直接跑去巢穴，期待能拍到更好的喂食瞬间。这是一只体型小但非常吵闹的犀鸟！

23. Cape Spurfowl, 南非鹧鸪, 南非鷓鴣, Pternistis capensis, ケープキジシャコ

update 202502

This species is very common around Cape Town—we easily spotted it along the roadside on our way to the hills and inside the Botanical Garden. It’s incredibly tame, showing no concern for humans. Its feather pattern is simply stunning, making it look truly beautiful.

这种鸟在开普敦附近非常常见，我们在前往山丘和植物园的路上就轻松看到了它。它非常驯服，完全不怕人。羽毛的纹理极其精美，使它看起来格外美丽。

24. Southern Crested Guineafowl, 南冠珠鸡, 南冠珠雞, Guttera edouardi

update 202502

As we were nearing our hotel on a cloudy day, a large group of birds suddenly appeared by the roadside. Wow, what a stunning sight!

当我们快到酒店时，天空乌云密布，一大群鸟儿突然出现在路边。哇，真是太美了！

25. African Woolly-necked Stork, 非洲白颈鹳, 非洲白頸鸛, Ciconia microscelis

update 202502

As usual, this large and conspicuous stork stands out. It is commonly found in both urban areas and forests. Watching it slowly walk across the golf course provided us with a great photo opportunity.

一如既往，这只体型巨大、显眼的鹳十分引人注目。它在城市和森林中都很常见。看着它缓缓地在高尔夫球场上行走，为我们提供了绝佳的拍摄机会。

26. Secretarybird, 蛇鹫, 蛇鷲, Sagittarius serpentarius, ヘビクイワシ

update 202502

A remarkable bird that resembles a crane or stork with long legs but has more of a raptor-like appearance. It’s one of my main targets—I’ve had a few sightings but haven’t captured great photos yet. However, I’m sure I’ll dedicate more time to this bird on my future trips to Africa.

一种独特的鸟类，外形类似鹤或鹳，拥有修长的双腿，但更像猛禽。这是我主要的目标之一，虽然曾经遇见过几次，但照片效果不太理想。不过，我相信在未来的非洲之行中，我会花更多时间关注这种鸟。

27. Bank Cormorant, 岸鸬鹚, 堤鸕鷀, Phalacrocorax neglectus, ハナグロウ

update 202502

We only spotted this bird in Cape Town. It appears completely black, though from certain angles, the “white rump” can be seen. It’s a unique species and surprisingly easy to find, but only in that one location.

我们只在开普敦看到这种鸟。它整体呈黑色，但从某些角度可以看到“白色臀部”。这是一种非常独特的鸟类，而且只在一个特定地点容易找到。

28. Rufous-necked Wryneck, 红胸蚁䴕, 褐頸蟻鴷, Jynx ruficollis, ムネアカアリスイ

update 202502

A very common and tiny woodpecker. It showed up almost immediately on our first day after a long journey. Its rufous neck makes it unmistakable.

一种非常常见且体型娇小的啄木鸟。经过长途旅行后，第一天它几乎立刻出现。它赤褐色的颈部使其极具辨识度。

29. Yellow-billed Duck, 非洲黄嘴鸭, 黃嘴鴨, Anas undulata, キバシガモ

update 202502

It is widely found, especially along the east coast of South Africa. Often seen near ponds and lakes, it is quite shy, like most other ducks.

它蛮普通，尤其是在南非东海岸。常见于池塘和湖泊附近，性格害羞，与其他鸭类相似。

update 202408

– honor to try out the new CANON R5mii, most of us really wish firmware upgrade for R5marki for better AF features. but we know while the markii launch mean the hope will fall on the new R5markii. Yes, the AF improve dramatically, it have AF function like R3, R7, R6markii with add on of new feature too.

– this bird fly quite low and any direction, I track it quite well too

what I like

i. animal detect, eye detection now included for single point, 5 points, any zone and also full area

ii. add on new focus area which disable all animal detect !!! it back to old AF method “point AF” .. very useful for condition for the camera difficult to detect the animal !!!

iii. the animal detect simply awesome, it pick up the animal so fast even at complex environment.. hope I can share more soon

iv. tracking is good too, even it is nothing compare to new R1 .. and may R3 (may be so use to the R3, feel the R3 pick up faster and track more “sticky”)

v. the .5s continuous pre-shoot is a real good feature !!! for wildlife .. I dont have many chance test this but it should be one of the best feature !!! all other brands may also follow this soon 😀

– 非常幸运马来西亚佳能，借了我新的R5markii用了3天。相信大家都有与我一样的“希望”。对焦。对焦。对焦。

对我3天的用，我一些感想。

i. 终于，它有了与R3,R7, R6makrii一样的对焦功能，加上新的“点”对焦。吧对焦区域直接换这个，就会想久的对焦方式。不会用上动物对焦。（在很多情况下，这会帮我们对焦上AI 找不到动物）

ii, 动物对焦真的很快，复杂的情况也很快找到。追焦，还是可以。可能用习惯R3，感觉R3还是追焦好点。等2-3星期后再试。

iii. 那个半秒一直预先拍下半秒的照片，这应该是这几的最好的创新吧（相信其他品牌应该也会用这个吧）。拍下半秒加上继续的1-2秒。只要不是过了相机buffer,相机是一只普通的拍的。不用像以前所有的预拍功能要等上好几秒才可以继续用相机。这真的是太好了。

7. Malaysian Rail-babbler, 白眉长颈鸫, 白眉長頸鶇, Eupetes macrocerus, クイナチメドリ, GEMBALA-KERA

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！

update 202408

– it is a tough day, been assign with a 1.5 days (actually just one day for Rail-babbler as main target). After meet Hermina & Shannon, they really keen to see the Rail-babbler… so we make a early move and have a long coffee stop before we go into forest due to some early morning rain. Immediate arrive the area, after got 1 frogmouth calling, and sight the Banded Woodpecker. I heard the Rail-babbler calling, immediate trying to track it down and we spit the bird less than 10 minutes … ring my buddy and hope he is happy man now ..

– 接受了一项几乎是不可能任务，1天时间看白眉长颈鸫。与两名客人交谈后，虽然她们都没来过马来西亚。可是还是觉得要用时间看这目标鸟。一大早下了场小雨，我们吃了进林子。到了没太久，竟然还听到蟆口鸱叫。。。虽然找了一会还是放弃，因为听到白眉长颈鸫叫。找了10多分钟，竟然找到了。。。。。幸运啊

update 202409

update 202410

– a very common lowland forest, mangrove, sub-montane woodpecker. Overall rufous which difficult to miss this bird.

– it is a special out to test the R1, may be I am already start use the “Pre-capture” long ago .. (those Olympus old time, Panasonic etc) for me to captured this kind of “trap focus” “jumping” picture is very easy … now Canon finally come with proper Pre-capture and improve it with … “continous Pre-capture” ..mean it is almost every half-press is a pre capture .. as long as control well the buffer… I hope I can find a better way to share to all of this about this “Best feature” to have for Wildlife Photography

– 这鸟蛮普通几乎在红树林，低海拔，中海拔森林都容易看到。棕色的鸟不难错过。

– 在这几天，我是在想办法记录下“我想大家知道R1 的强大”。。。其中一环是“预拍”。这功能在很久以前我一开始用，在Olympus, Panasonic 可能在10年前就开始有这个很好的功能。有这功能后，拍摄“陷阱对焦”的“起飞跳”降落“ 几乎都没难读。可是这次，佳能的是绝对加强版的“预拍”。。。之前我们拍后都要等上好几秒相机才可以继续使用。可是这次，佳能的是“连续预拍”只要控制好。几乎每一刻都是预拍的。（可是卡可是要大大的，不然很快就卡满）。。还在努力中要怎么呈现我想表达。

9. Black-thighed falconet, 黑腿小隼, Microhierax fringillarius,モモグロヒメハヤブサ, RAJAWALI-BELALANG MELAYU

update 202411

– The only species in Peninsular Malaysia which also one of the world’s smallest raptors, often seen perched high, watching for prey.

– While testing the new Canon R1’s Pre-continuous Shooting and AF performance, I captured one of many frames. I’ll share more from the full sequence in the near future.

– 在马来西亚半岛唯一的物种，同时也是世界上最小的猛禽之一，经常被看到栖息在高处，观察猎物。

在测试新款佳能 R1 的连续预拍摄和自动对焦性能时，我捕捉到了众多画面中的一个。不久后我会分享更多完整的拍摄序列。

2. Greater Flameback, 大金背啄木鸟, 大金背啄木鳥, Chrysocolaptes guttacristatus, オオコガネゲラ, BELATUK-PINANG BESAR BIASA

update 202411

– One of the common woodpeckers found in Malaysia’s mangroves, this species stands out with its pale eyes, distinguishing it from the common Flameback.

– There have been so many photos of this woodpecker lately, and I love how the CANON R1 captured the action, especially the way the woodpecker swings its wings.

Sample of CANON R1 capture samples

– 在马来西亚红树林中常见的一种啄木鸟，这个物种以其淡色眼睛而著称，与小金背三趾啄木鸟有所不同。

– 最近有很多这只啄木鸟的照片，真喜欢CANON R1捕捉到的动态，尤其是它挥动翅膀的瞬间。

– One of the common woodpeckers found in Malaysia’s mangroves, this species stands out with its pale eyes, distinguishing it from the common Flameback.

– I’m thoroughly enjoying the new Continuous Pre-recording feature on the Canon R1. It virtually guarantees capturing the exact moment an action begins, without missing a beat. In this instance, I half-pressed the shutter before the bird moved, and once the action started, a full press ensured that the preceding 0.5 seconds were already recorded. The camera seamlessly continues with AF tracking. Check out the JPEG movie clips shared in the link for a closer look!

– 我非常喜欢佳能 R1 新推出的连续预录功能，它几乎可以确保捕捉到动作开始的瞬间，不会错过任何细节。在这个例子中，我在鸟开始动作前半按快门，一旦动作开始，全按快门，前0.5秒的画面已经记录在卡上，且相机会继续进行自动对焦跟踪。可以通过链接中的 JPEG 视频片段一览精彩画面！

– a very common and beautiful hornbill of Malaysia

– 在傍晚时分，我们在等天暗猫头鹰+夜鹰。突然这鸟在低飞入森林里。虽然，佳能RF100-500 + 1.4x 光圈这么小，可是对焦+追焦还是很快的。

– 马来西亚蛮普通的鸟。也是非常漂亮的鸟。

update 202502

Our visit to the mangrove was brief, but we were fortunate to see all the main targets, including this talented singer of Malaysia’s mangroves. It didn’t stay for long, and unfortunately, my settings were off—I ended up shooting at ISO 25,600. Yes, 25,600! But surprisingly, the result turned out fine for me.

我们在红树林的停留时间很短，但很幸运地看到了所有主要目标，包括这位来自马来西亚红树林的优秀歌手。它停留的时间不长，而我却设置错误，竟然用 ISO 25600 拍摄。是的，25600！但结果对我来说还算可以。

202502, Kuala Selangor, Selangor, Malaysia

update 202405

– a not so attractive bird for Mangrove special, but always a highly wanted bird by birders come to Malaysia.

– this time, a very lucky group.. while we walking at Mangrove.. someone talk to me.. a dull bird stand infront of .. is it common ? very soon I look at the direction, I saw it stand just open and everyone got their best view of this active shy bird.

– 来马来西亚的鸟人，都会想到红树林看几种鸟。这一只是其一。虽然不是很美丽。

– 这一团是多么幸运，我么只是红树林走走。突然其中一位客人，问。。有只没颜色的鸟在这，应该很普通吧。我很快望望，就看到他。这么活跃与害羞的鸟久这么么容易让每一位看的这么好。

– 在等更好的题材，这小小鸟静静地飞过来了。完全没声音。还好，动作吸引我见到这一刻。

#####

– a very tiny Woodpecker, overall brown and white. Which normally found near mangrove, nearby river bank.

– 小，棕+白小啄木鸟。通常在红树林，河边可以见到。

– 在我预佳能R1的好几天，这是我真的觉得。以后几乎“飞鸟“的照片应该是很普通了。有了新的预拍功能，只要在鸟起飞前半按下对焦键钮。当鸟飞起，半秒前以内的全RAW档都会记录下。最重要的是拍了后，相机还是一样的可以正常继续拍摄不用任何等待。

– a not so common owl found Malaysia. Big size and with very vocal if found the correct one.

– I am making some nearby forest for trying the new CANON R1 to trying for AF lock on, AF tracking, Image Quality, Pre-capture … and trying again the in camera upscale. Found this bird roost at one of the Palm Oil plantation before strong sunlight come in, the bird sudden flying out to its’ roosting side.the R1 as expected captured most of the frame without any issue even with background change.

– 一直马来西亚不很容易见到的大鸮。通常叫的很厉害。

– 这个月，开始要测试佳能的新相机（R1）上个月已测试了工程机。（其实没太多问题除了开不到RAW档）。其实，不知道还需要测试什么。R3的对焦对我来讲已几乎没错过任何的雨林情况。可是，还是抱有蛮多希望增强一些我真的需要的。对焦，追焦，画质应该大致都是很好。我对“预拍”（这个应该是佳能的卖点），只要控制缓冲好。这个预拍是一只都预拍，不像其他牌子。用了后，都要等上好几秒。在到达第一个点，找到这鸟在黑暗处站。等到光线好点时，拍下蛮多照片。可是这鸟突然飞出来，一直到远处（去睡觉了）。真如我的想法一样，这种情况。没错过任何一刻。

– 马来半岛很普通的啄木鸟，通常在红树林出没。

– 在继续测试佳能R1预拍中，真的这种任何手突然跳起，降落的一刻都完全容易的拿下。还要在相机拍的预拍后还继续的普通拍照。

I came to test out the Canon R1, and with its new Continuous Pre-recording and advanced AF tracking features, I was able to capture the moment they took off and flew toward us. Later, I combined the JPEGs into a single movie file.

– 很高兴看到它们回到了稻田，和往常一样，它们在清晨非常活跃。我这次是来试用佳能R1的，借助全新的连续预录功能和先进的自动对焦追踪功能，我成功捕捉到了它们飞起并朝我们飞来的瞬间。之后，我将JPEG文件合成为了一部视频文件。

12. Rufous Woodpecker, 栗啄木鸟, 栗啄木鳥, Micropternus brachyurus, クリチャゲラ, BELATUK BIJI NANGKA

update 202411

– One of the most common woodpeckers in Malaysia, this species can be found in a variety of environments—lowlands, mangroves, sub-montane forests, and even urban areas. Its overall rufous coloration makes it hard to miss.

– While testing the Canon R1’s “Continuous Pre-recording” feature, the bird was perched as usual. I half-pressed the shutter to activate Pre-recording, and only fully pressed it when the bird took off from the branch. Every frame of the action was captured in full RAW and saved to my card.

– 这是马来西亚最常见的啄木鸟之一，分布于低地、红树林、亚山地森林，甚至城市等各种环境。它整体呈赤褐色，非常显眼，不容易错过。

– 在测试佳能 R1 的“连续预录”功能时，这只鸟像往常一样站在树枝上。我半按快门开启预录功能，直到鸟从树枝起飞时才完全按下快门。整个动作的每一帧都被完整记录为 RAW 格式并存储在卡中。

14. Golden-bellied Gerygone,黄胸噪刺莺, 黃胸噪刺鶯,Gerygone sulphurea, マレーシアセンニョムシクイ, KELICAP-PEREPAT ASIA

Tiny and rather unobtrusive bird with brownish upperparts and luminous lemon-yellow underparts. Superficially similar to female and juvenile Olive-backed Sunbirds, but note gerygone’s short, uncurved bill. Forages in parks, forests, and plantations, where it often joins mixed flocks moving through the middle and upper layers. Song is variable throughout its range but invariably includes buzzy notes with obvious rises and falls in pitch. [Ebird]

体型小巧且不显眼的鸟，背部呈棕色，腹部为明亮的柠檬黄色。外形与雌性或幼年的黄腹花蜜鸟相似，但注意区分，其喙短而不弯曲。通常在公园、森林和种植园中觅食，经常加入混群，在中层和上层林冠中活动。鸣声因分布区域不同而变化，但都包含明显高低起伏的嗡嗡声。

update 202412

A tiny bird with a beautiful song, it’s often challenging to capture a good photo due to its small size. However, this time, it came down close enough for us to get a clear shot.

一只小巧的鸟儿，歌声非常动听，由于体型小，通常很难拍到清晰的照片。不过这次它靠近了我们，让我们拍到了好照片。

15. Pied Harrier, 鹊鹞, 花澤鵟, Circus melanoleucos, マダラチュウヒ, HELANG-SAWAH HITAM-PUTIH

update 20250101

My year-end birding tradition often takes me to the paddy fields in search of winter visitors. If I recall correctly, my buddy and I were waiting for some warblers when, out of nowhere, this raptor flew in, staring right at us! But no—it wasn’t us it was focused on. The Purple Heron caught its attention, flying between us and the harrier. I couldn’t help but wonder what the harrier was thinking as it kept its eyes on the heron for quite a distance.

年末观鸟的习惯通常会带我到稻田寻找冬季候鸟。如果没记错的话，当时我和朋友正在等待一些莺类，突然这只猛禽飞了进来，直盯着我们！但不，它的注意力并不在我们身上，而是被紫鹭吸引了。紫鹭飞过我们和鹞鹰之间，而鹞鹰一路都紧盯着紫鹭，不禁让我好奇它到底在想什么。

16. Collared Scops Owl, 领角鸮, 领角鸮, Otus lettia, JAMPUK BIASA

update 202502

It was truly an owl-filled day—we spotted six owl species in just one day! This last one had been particularly elusive; we had tried to get a good view of it a few days ago without much success. But today, it seemed to stay in place for a long time, giving everyone a perfect view.

今天真是猫头鹰的日——我们在一天内看到了六种猫头鹰！这最后一只尤其难得，几天前我们曾尝试寻找它的身影，但未能如愿。而今天，它似乎停留了很久，让大家都能欣赏到它的风采。

– so fast, it is back again with beautiful plumage ..

– 马来西亚候鸟，不很稀有。雄鸟身，尾都是蓝的。可是非繁殖羽时，身上可能完全美蓝色。所以有时蛮难分辨雄或雌。

update 202411

– This is a common bird found in Malaysia’s lowland forests, but it is often overlooked because both the male and female have relatively plain appearances, except for the male’s distinctive blue or dark forehead.

– During our chit-chat session, my buddy suddenly spotted something flying in. He was thrilled to notice it before anyone else—such is the joy of birding: the excitement of discovering it yourself!

– 这是马来西亚低地森林中常见的一种鸟，但经常被忽略，因为雄鸟和雌鸟整体外观都较为普通，只有雄鸟有显眼的蓝色或深色额头。

– 在闲聊时，朋友突然看到有东西飞了进来。他兴奋地第一个发现它——这就是观鸟的乐趣：自己发现的那份喜悦！

update 202408

– we have ours main targets ticked, so we look for any other target … we walk real slow in the morning until the first spot and the bird not there .. continue walking and reach 2nd location … we just walk into the trail for nothing to hope but when we got close it calling loud and when we reach the bird seem shy .. than we decided to walk further … and wait .. not that long they bird sudden appear and displaying for us !!!! wow wow

– a post make us think, why me and my best buddy (i think he think the same now) always got something unexpected. It is boring to know the result while you going for … buddy hope everything is fine for you … I really miss ours time, you make me strong, you make me ignore gossip …

– 我们主要目标都拍到后。就尽量找找其他主要目标，这鸟几乎都是每个人的想看鸟之一。我们慢慢的走，到了第一个步道没听到什么声音。我们继续到另一个步道，也没听到什么。可是我们还是走进去，大概要到他的跳舞点时。突然听到他叫。我们接近时他很怕，跑了！。我们只有走去远点的地方，等了没很久。大概5-10分钟后，他突然就出来跳起舞来（母的在后面）。高兴时了。

– 这令我想起我的最好朋友，我们的初衷就是看+拍野鸟。拍不到没事，要享受。我真的想你了，想我们一起出去吃“白果”的时候。你的每一句，都把我变得坚强。。。最重要的我记得，我们不需要其他人怎么看我们，讲我们。。。。

#####

When we arrive the dancing ground, the bird seem shy and walk to a side .. and we decided to move further to monitor the bird and get some pictures. Nothing to expect, all of sudden it start displaying (dancing) … Immediate got the “one of the best moment of 2024” .. (still like a dream

– 可能是2024我最好的一刻。在我们的特别鸟种团都达标3种主要鸟，几乎没什么压力。就来个没压力的观鸟。在我们到达这鸟的“跳舞点”，他怕！！！跑到一边，我们决定站远点。再来怕些照片。可是他突然跳起舞来，这么久来了个2024最美好的一刻。

#####

update 202407

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。

– 非常炎热的下午。还好，蛮多啄木鸟。。但我们要去凉快等鸟前，尽然被我看到“红点”在蛮低的位置。本身还以为看到榴红八色鸫，当我用上双筒看是。。我大叫。橙腰！。。。可是是鸟的前面，我们还是希望有机会100%是橙腰（怕是红腰。。很暗）当我们追他大概5-10分钟，他停了2次终于让我们看北部+叫了！大家都高兴。。。
