update 20251222

After 10 months, I’m back in Africa — and this time, Kenya offers a completely different experience!
We were already thrilled by a few species from this bird family in South Africa, but here in Kenya, we’re seeing several up close, almost daily. And the best part? They are truly stunning birds!

時隔十個月，我再次回到非洲，而這次在肯亞的經歷完全不同！
我們之前在南非看到這個鳥類家族的幾個物種就已經很興奮了，而在肯亞，幾乎每天都能近距離看到更多種，太棒了！
最重要的是，它們真的非常美麗！

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

update 202512

This is one of those birds that always managed to avoid our group — even some of our best birding friends missed it. But after three trips to Africa, we finally had an amazing moment with this special species. It came close and walked slowly right in front of us!

这是一种总是躲过我们好朋友镜头的鸟。前三次来非洲都没遇上，终于这次遇到了！
这只特别的鸟走得很慢，离我们非常近，就在眼前出现，太精彩了！

 

3. Green Woodhoopoe, 绿林戴胜, 綠林戴勝, Phoeniculus purpureus, ミドリモリヤツガシラ

update 202512

It was raining and nearly the end of the day. Just as we were getting ready to head back, I spotted a group of birds with curved bills feeding in a tree right in front of us. I shouted, “Woodhoopoe!”
Everyone was thrilled to see this stunning species up close!

下雨了，天也快黑了，正准备回程的时候，我看到一群弯嘴的鸟在我们前面的树上觅食，我大喊：“林戴胜！”
大家都为这美丽的鸟种感到特别开心！

 

4. African Paradise-Flycatcher, 非洲寿带, 非洲綬帶, Terpsiphone viridis, アフリカサンコウチョウ

update 202512

It’s always a joy to see this long-tailed, fast-moving bird. So far, we’ve seen it twice — once a white morph on day 1, and it was actually the second bird of the tour! It moves quickly, so not everyone may have gotten a perfect shot, but I’m sure everyone managed to capture at least a few photos of this stunning bird.

看到这种长尾巴、动作迅速的鸟总是令人开心。目前我们已经见到两次了——第一次是第一天的一只白色型态的，它还是我们旅程中的第二种鸟！虽然它动作很快，可能不是每个人都拍到好照片，但相信大家多少都有拍到这只漂亮的鸟。

 

5. White-crested helmetshrike, 长冠盔鵙, 長冠盔鵙, Prionops plumatus, エボシメガネモズ

update 202512

After so many days here — honestly lost count — every day has been filled with excitement from birds, wildlife, food, and endless photography. But this species has always been high on my wishlist.
It’s one of my top targets for this trip, and we were lucky to spot it a few times, not too high up, giving us great photo opportunities. Now just hoping we can still get the “Grey-headed” too!

简体中文翻译：
来这里已经好多天了，真的记不清有多久了。每天都充满了鸟类、动物、美食和拍照的兴奋。但这只鸟一直是我很想拍到的目标之一。
这次旅程我们已经看到它几次了，而且都不算太高，拍摄条件很好，大家都有不错的收获。现在就希望还能拍到”灰头”那只！

 

6. Tacazze Sunbird, 塔卡花蜜鸟, 塔卡茲花蜜鳥, Nectarinia tacazze, ルビーオナガタイヨウチョウ

 

update 202602

One of our team members discovered this beautiful sunbird repeatedly returning to the same flower to feed. Even though there were many other birds to look for, we still spent some quality time at this spot. I also took the opportunity to capture some BIF shots of this lovely bird.

我们其中一位队员发现了这只漂亮的太阳鸟，一直反复飞回同一朵花取食。虽然周围还有很多其他鸟种可以寻找，但我们还是特地在这朵花前停留了一段时间。我也趁机拍下了这只可爱太阳鸟的飞行瞬间（BIF）。

update 202512

Besides discovering many new bird families, even the familiar ones here in Kenya feel extra special. Many are incredibly colorful, and some—like this one—have long, elegant tails. When the light hits just right, their feathers shine beautifully. Truly a stunning bird from Kenya.
As of day 12, we’ve photographed 366 bird species!

除了遇到很多新的鸟类科目之外，就连这些熟悉的鸟种在肯尼亚也显得格外迷人。几乎每种都色彩鲜艳，有些像这只鸟，还有着漂亮的长尾巴。阳光照在身上时，羽毛闪闪发光，真的太美了。
今天是第12天，我们已经拍到366种鸟了！

 

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

update 202601

After seeing this common bird in South Africa a year ago, I’ve always hoped to see it again.
And now, on our second last day in Kenya, we finally got the chance! This male was actively displaying—trying hard to impress nearby females (though it didn’t seem to work even after an hour!).
Still, everyone was thrilled to capture some great flight shots and videos.
For those who came for specific targets, we’ve got all the key species too!
So far, we’ve photographed 414 bird species over the past 17 days (though this number might grow as not all photos have been checked yet!).

一年前在南非见过这只常见的鸟后，我一直希望能再见到它。
这次在肯尼亚的倒数第二天，终于再次遇见了！这只雄鸟非常积极地展示自己，试图吸引附近的雌鸟（虽然一个小时后好像还是没成功）。
但大家都很开心，因为拍到了很棒的飞行照片和视频。
而且，这次专门为几种特别鸟种而来的朋友们，也都拍到了主要目标鸟！
目前为止，我们在这17天里共拍摄到414种鸟类（这个数字还可能增加，因为还有很多照片还没来得及检查）。

 

8. Hooded Vulture, 冠兀鹫, 頭巾兀鷲, Necrosyrtes monachus, ズキンハゲワシ

update 20260102

Every birder has their own focus—you can always tell what a birder is watching, even if something else exciting is happening nearby!
In this moment, both the bird and the lions were locked onto what interested them—a group of lions feeding, which is why the vulture flew in and waited nearby.
We were lucky to see it land and stay on the ground right in front of us.

每个观鸟人都有自己的关注点，哪怕旁边发生着很精彩的事，也能一眼看出他们在看什么
这次是秃鹫和狮子都专注于同一个目标——一群正在进食的狮子。
这就是为什么秃鹫飞过来并在地面等待的原因。
很幸运它飞过来后就停在我们面前，给了我们很好的拍照机会。

 

9. Emerald-spotted Wood Dove, 绿点森鸠, 綠點森鳩, Turtur chalcospilos, ミドリマダラバト

update 202601

After 18 unforgettable days in Kenya, I’m finally back in Malaysia. This birding trip truly opened my eyes—aside from Sri Lanka, Kenya has become one of my favorite places. Even without any feeding stations, birds were easy to find and photograph. On just Day 1, we photographed 98 species! By the end of the tour, the group had recorded 414 species—and I got about 10 more during solo walks in free time. I’ll definitely return, though 2026/2027 is already fully booked… and I’m too tired to think about 2028 now. Time to relax. More photos coming soon!

It’s not a lifer, but this time we had several close encounters with this seemingly common bird. The two distinct spots on its wings stood out beautifully, especially when the light hit just right. Moments like this remind us how stunning even familiar species can be.

在肯尼亚度过了18天难忘的观鸟之旅，我终于回到马来西亚了。这次旅程真的让我大开眼界，除了斯里兰卡之外，肯尼亚已经成为我最喜欢的观鸟地点之一。
即使没有喂食点，也能轻松看到并拍到各种鸟类。我们第一天就拍到了98种鸟！
整趟行程结束时，团队成员一共拍到了414种鸟（我在休息时独自走动时又多拍了10种）。
我肯定还会再回来，只是可惜2026和2027的行程已经排满……
现在真的累了，2028的计划暂时不想动了，先休息一下，接下来会陆续分享更多照片！

虽然不是新种，但这次多次近距离观察到这只看起来普通的鸟，翅膀上那两个特别的斑点在阳光下显得格外漂亮。
这样的时刻让我们再次感受到，就算是常见的鸟种，也有它惊艳的一面。

 

10. Lesser Honeyguide, 北非响蜜鴷, 北非嚮蜜鴷, Indicator minor, ハシブトミツオシエ

 

11. Giant Kingfisher, 大鱼狗, 大魚狗, Megaceryle maxima, オオヤマセミ

update 202602

We first saw and photographed this kingfisher at Lake Baringo, but it was either too far or perched on the resort roof—not ideal. Of course, everyone wants a great shot of a kingfisher!

Today, we rushed to Lake Naivasha hoping for a better chance, but under the hot sun, it was still either too far or too high.

Luckily, we spotted some nice birds at the car park before heading for a late lunch. After lunch, I suggested a casual walk by the lake—and to our surprise, the kingfisher was feeding right near where we stayed.

It kept diving for fish—around 10–15 dives, but only caught fish 3 times (maybe not the best fisherman!). Bingo !!! He got the fish !

 

我们第一次在巴林戈湖看到并拍到这只翠鸟，但当时它要么太远，要么停在度假村屋顶上，画面不够理想。毕竟，谁不想拍一张完美的翠鸟照片呢？

今天我们赶到奈瓦沙湖，希望能有更好机会。但在烈日下，它还是太远或太高。

幸运的是，在停车场附近我们看到了一些不错的鸟。午饭后我提议大家去湖边随便走走，没想到这只翠鸟就在我们住的地方附近捕鱼。

它不停地俯冲，大概冲了十几次，只有三次抓到鱼（可能捕鱼技术不太行）。

不过我们总算拍到它靠近栖息的美丽画面了，太开心了！

12, Northern Carmine Bee-eater, 红蜂虎, 北方洋紅蜂虎, Merops nubicus, キタベニハチクイ

update 202601

At the current pace of posting, there’s no way I can share all — or even half — of the photos from Kenya.
Kenya is truly one of those must-visit birding destinations. Absolutely incredible!

This was one of the bee-eaters that got everyone excited!
We only saw it once during the entire 18-day trip in Kenya, but what a moment — such a stunning bird with its bright red color. Truly unforgettable!

按照现在发图的速度，我肯定不可能把肯尼亚的照片都分享出来，甚至连一半都难。
肯尼亚真的是鸟友必去的国家之一，太精彩了！

这是让大家兴奋的一种蜂虎！
在肯尼亚的18天旅程中我们只见过它一次，但那一刻太精彩了——它那鲜艳的红色太惊艳，真的是一只让人难忘的美丽鸟儿！

 

13. Yellow-necked Spurfowl, 黄颈裸喉鹧鸪, 黃喉鷓鴣, Pternistis leucoscepus, ハゲノドシャコ

update 202601

This was our very first partridge of the trip — it crossed the road right in front of us, and I was quick enough to get a few shots before it vanished.

Partridges in Africa seem much easier to spot than those in Asia — they’re generally not shy at all, unlike the ones we usually struggle to see back home.

这是我们此行拍到的第一只鹧鸪，它从路边慢慢走过，我刚好反应够快，拍了几张就消失在草丛中。

相比之下，非洲的鹧鸪真的容易多了，大多数一点也不怕人，跟我们在亚洲苦苦寻找的完全不一样！

 

14. Lappet-faced Vulture, 皱脸秃鹫, 縐臉兀鷲, Torgos tracheliotos, ミミヒダハゲワシ

update 202601

We waited quite a while hoping the Silver Cat would come out from its “nest,” but eventually gave up and only got a few head shots. Just as the car started moving, I spotted a large raptor flying nearby and asked the driver to reverse. At first, we took some record shots through the window glass. Then, due to a small miscommunication with the driver, we ended up stopping just about 5 meters from the bird—resulting in this amazing close-up!
I really enjoy seeing vultures up close.

我们原本等了很久，希望能看到银猫从它的“巢穴”出来，但最后只拍到一些头部特写就放弃了。就在车子开始移动的时候，我看到一只大型猛禽飞过，马上让司机倒车。开始时我们隔着车窗拍了几张记录照，后来因为和司机的一个小误会，结果车停在距离这只鸟大约5米的地方，意外得到了这张超近的精彩照片！

我真的很喜欢近距离看秃鹫。

 

15. Double-banded Courser, 双领斑走鸻, 雙紋走鴴, Smutsornis africanus, フタオビスナバシリ

 

16. Northern White-faced Owl, 白脸角鸮, 北方白臉角鴞, Ptilopsis leucotis, アフリカオオコノハズク

update 202601

This was one of my main targets for our Kenya birding trip, and I’m so glad we got it—our very first owl of the trip! As expected, it was sleeping during the day. Of course, we all wished for a shot with its eyes open or in a better pose, but I’m happy we chose not to disturb it just for a photo. Big thanks to my amazing team—you all are awesome!

这是我这次肯尼亚观鸟行程的主要目标之一，很开心我们顺利拍到我们此行的第一只猫头鹰！白天它当然是在睡觉，我们也希望能拍到睁眼或更好姿势的照片，但我更高兴我们没有为了拍照去打扰它。
感谢我的团队——你们真的太棒了！

 

17. Red-and-yellow Barbet, 红黄拟䴕, 紅黃擬啄木, Trachyphonus erythrocephalus, ホオアカオナガゴシキドリ

update 202601

Such a beautiful bird. I always thought barbets mainly feed on fruit, but we observed this species many times feeding on termites, ants, and other small insects. That likely explains why we often see them foraging on the ground.

这真是一只非常漂亮的鸟。我原本以为拟啄木鸟主要以果实为食，但这一次我们多次观察到它们捕食白蚁、蚂蚁和其他小型昆虫。这也可能就是我们经常在地面看到它们活动的原因。

 

18. Chestnut-bellied Sandgrouse, 栗腹沙鸡, 栗腹沙雞, Pterocles exustus, チャバラサケイ

update 202601

Such an adorable bird family. We were lucky to capture four different species in Kenya. I absolutely love the way these birds look, they are incredibly charming.

这是一个非常可爱的鸟类家庭。我们在肯尼亚成功记录了四种不同的鸟类。我真的很喜欢这些鸟的外形，看起来实在太讨人喜欢了。

 

 

19. Bronze Sunbird, 长尾铜花蜜鸟, 青銅花蜜鳥, Nectarinia kilimensis, ブロンズオナガタイヨウチョウ

update 202601

Day 1 of our Kenya birding tour, and this was the fifth bird we photograph. It was incredibly close, completely ignoring our presence while feeding calmly on flowers near the ground. So far on this trip, we have photographed three different long-tailed sunbird species, a very rewarding start to the tour.

肯尼亚赏鸟之旅第 1 天，这是我们拍到的第 5 种鸟。它距离非常近，专注地在地面附近的花朵上取食，完全无视我们的存在。到目前为止，这次行程中我们已经拍到了 3 种不同的“长尾”太阳鸟，实在是一个非常美好的开始。

 

20. Superb Starling, 栗头丽椋鸟, 栗頭麗椋鳥, Lamprotornis superbus, ツキノワテリムク

update 202601

This was the very first bird we sighted the moment we stepped off the plane. They were everywhere around the airport area. An incredibly beautiful bird, very common and surprisingly tame in Kenya. But honestly, who cares how common it is? Beauty is beauty.

这是我们一下飞机就看到的第一种鸟，在机场周围随处可见。它在肯尼亚算是非常常见、也相当亲人的鸟类，但那又如何？如此美丽的鸟，怎么看都不会腻。

 

21. Southern Ground-Hornbill, 红脸地犀鸟, 紅臉地犀鳥, Bucorvus leadbeateri, ミナミジサイチョウ

update 202601

This is a hornbill quite different from the hornbills we are familiar with. Unlike most species, this one usually feeds on the ground, which is why it is known as the Ground Hornbill. We were very fortunate to have it walk straight toward us, giving us an excellent close view and a great photo session.

这是一种与我们常见的犀鸟很不一样的犀鸟。它通常在地面觅食，因此被称为“地犀鸟”。这次非常幸运，它直接向我们走来，让我们近距离观赏，也拍到了很棒的照片。

 

22. Lichtenstein’s Sandgrouse, 里氏沙鸡, 橫斑沙雞, Pterocles lichtensteinii, クロビタイサケイ

update 202601

This was our very first Sandgrouse of the Kenya tour, standing right in the middle of the road after sunset. The light was extremely low, but we kept pressing the shutter to capture this rare moment. Truly a beautiful bird.

这是我们肯尼亚行程中看到的第一只沙鸡。日落后，它就站在马路正中央。光线非常暗，但我们还是不停按下快门，记录下这个难得的瞬间。真是一只美丽的鸟。

 

23. Vulturine Guineafowl, 鹫珠鸡, 鷲珠雞, Acryllium vulturinum, フサホロホロチョウ

update 202601

Another bird that is very common in Samburu—we see it almost every day. Look a bit closer, and it actually looks a little scary too, especially with that bald head.

这是在桑布鲁很常见的另一种鸟，几乎每天都能看到。仔细一看，其实还有点吓人，特别是那颗光秃秃的头。

 

24. White-bellied Go-away-bird, 白腹灰蕉鹃, 白腹灰蕉鵑, Crinifer leucogaster, シロハラハイイロエボシドリ

update 202601

Not the best-looking bird, but definitely a weird and attractive subject to photograph, with its impressive high crest. Hard to miss thanks to its large size and the way it moves in groups. We watched it feeding on the ground and flying all around us.

这不是一只“好看”的鸟，但它绝对怪异又有魅力，尤其是那高高竖起的冠羽，非常适合拍摄。体型大，又常成群活动，很难不注意到它。我们看到它在地面觅食，也在我们周围飞来飞去。

 

25. Yellow-rumped Tinkerbird, 金腰钟声拟鴷, 金腰捕鴷, Pogoniulus bilineatus, キゴシヒメゴシキドリ

update 202602

This was our very first Barbet of the tour, and it couldn’t have been better. The bird perched unusually low and very close to us. I still remember my first Tinkerbird sighting—way up in the canopy, 20–30 meters high. This cute fellow, however, stayed low and fed calmly just a short distance away.

这是我们此次行程看到的第一只拟啄木鸟，而且距离非常近、位置也很低。还记得我第一次看到“响蜜䴕”时，它高高地停在二三十米的树冠上。这只可爱的小家伙却低低地停着，在离我们不远的地方悠闲觅食。

 

26. Senegal Thick-knee, 小石鸻, 塞內加爾石鴴, Burhinus senegalensis, コイシチドリ

update 202602

It is always a joy to encounter this “big-eyed” bird, but this sighting was especially memorable. The bird was staying around a small pond in an extremely hot and dry area, surrounded by thorny vegetation.

Image quality wasn’t ideal due to strong heat haze, but the experience of watching and photographing this cute and beautiful bird made it truly worthwhile.

每次看到这只“眼睛很大”的鸟都让人感到开心，而这一次的相遇更是特别。它活动在一个非常炎热、干燥的小水塘附近，周围布满了带刺的植物。

由于强烈的热浪影响，照片质量并不理想，但能亲眼观察并拍摄到这只可爱又美丽的鸟，已经让我感到非常满足了。

 

27. Abyssinian Scimitar-bill, 小弯嘴戴胜, 小彎嘴林戴勝, Rhinopomastus minor, キバシカマハシ

update 202602

A bird that’s hard to miss — large in size, moving in small groups, with a long, curved orange bill. Such a strange-looking bird, but I absolutely love seeing it.

一只很难错过的鸟，体型大，常成小群活动，拥有又长又弯的橙色鸟喙。外形真的很奇特，但我非常喜欢看到它。

 

28. Rufous-crowned Roller, 棕顶佛法僧, 棕頂佛法僧, Coracias naevius, チャガシラニシブッポウソウ

update 202602

Such a beautiful bird! Unfortunately, we only managed a single sighting during a rushed midday drive. The intense heat waves badly affected the photo quality, but we had no choice and still tried our best to capture the beauty of this bird.

这么美丽的一只鸟，可惜只在中午赶路时匆匆看到一次。强烈的热浪严重影响了照片质量，但我们别无选择，还是尽力记录下这只鸟的美丽。

 

29. Variable Sunbird, 杂色花蜜鸟, 易變花蜜鳥, Cinnyris venustus, カワリタイヨウチョウ

update 202602

We arrived too early to check in, so we squeezed in a quick birding session. What a great decision! This stunning bird came down low and close, giving us fantastic photo opportunities. Within the first hour alone, I think everyone easily shot more than 500 frames of this beauty!

我们到得太早还不能办理入住，于是决定先来个简单的观鸟。结果太值得了！这只漂亮的鸟飞得很低，也很靠近，让我们拍到很多好照片。才第一小时，大家应该都为它拍了超过500张照片！

1001. Lions, 狮子, 獅子, Panthera leo

update 202512

Birding in Kenya is filled with unforgettable stories—I’ll share more once I’m back in Malaysia. For now, every day has been full of excitement. While we’re focused on finding new birds and getting better shots, we never miss out on amazing animals or stunning scenery either.
We’ve seen lions three times already! The most recent sighting was a group of seven, though we didn’t even stop (for a funny reason I’ll share later).
This one was incredible—at first, it looked like a typical sleeping lion, but suddenly it stood up, walked to drink, and came straight toward our vehicle—just 15 meters away!
Four more days to go, and we’ve photographed 390 bird species so far!

在肯尼亚观鸟真的充满故事，回到马来西亚后会慢慢分享。现在每天都非常精彩，我们虽然专注找新鸟、拍更好的照片，但遇到精彩的动物或美景，我们也不会错过。
狮子我们已经看了三次！最近一次是看到七只狮子的群体，但因为一些“特别原因”，我们竟然没停下车（哈哈，回头再说）。
不过这次的画面已经让大家很满足——一开始像平常一样看到一只睡觉的狮子，没想到它突然站起来喝水，然后慢慢走向我们，大约只有15米远！
还剩4天行程，目前已经拍到390种鸟类了！

 

1002. Cheetah, 猎豹, 獵豹, Acinonyx jubatus

update 202601

One of our group members wished to see this, and what a wish—it made everyone happy!
The world’s fastest animal slowly walked toward us, getting as close as 1–2 meters from me. Before that, it looked like it was about to hunt, pausing about 10 meters away as if ready to sprint… but then it stopped.
Still, what an incredible and beautiful sight!

这是我们团员的一个愿望，结果这个愿望真的让大家都开心了！
这世界上最快的动物慢慢地朝我们走来，离我最近时大约只有一两米。之前它看起来像是准备狩猎，大约在十米远的地方停下，好像随时要冲出去……但最后它停住了。
不管怎样，这真是一幕令人难忘又漂亮的画面！

 

1003. African elephants, 非洲象, Loxodonta africana

update 202601

One of the largest animals here—can look quite intimidating, especially when it approaches with alert sounds. But the young ones are just adorable! Always full of energy, running around their mother nonstop—such a lovely sight!

这里最大型的动物之一，看起来很吓人，特别是靠近时还会发出警戒声。但它们的小宝宝真的非常可爱！一直围着妈妈跑来跑去，活泼又萌，非常有趣的画面！

 

1004. Lesser bushbaby, 婴猴, 嬰猴, Galago senegalensis

update 202601

We came across this adorable little animal while walking between the restaurant and our rooms at Masai Mara. It’s an incredible jumper—really reminds me of a Tarsier!

在马赛马拉，我们从餐厅走回房间时，发现了这只非常可爱的动物。它跳得非常厉害，让我想起我们的眼镜猴！

 

1005. Unstriped ground squirrel, 无条纹地松鼠, 無條紋地鬆鼠, Xerus rutilus

update 202602

This squirrel loves to stand upright and look around, as if keeping watch. Absolutely adorable!

这只松鼠很喜欢站起来四处张望，好像在观察周围的情况，真的太可爱了！
