9. Blue-naped Pitta, 蓝枕八色鸫, 藍枕八色鳥, Hydrornis nipalensis, アオエリヤイロチョウ

update 202601

It was a very short trip to Northern Thailand, but this bird was extremely active.

I was lucky to see both the male and female at very close range, right next to the hide owner’s house.

The blue on the nape looks so different—bright, vivid, and incredibly attractive.

An amazing bird.

这次只是一次很短的泰国北部行程,但这只鸟非常活跃。

很幸运能在很近的距离同时看到雄鸟和雌鸟,就在拍摄棚主人的房子旁边。

后颈上的“蓝色”看起来非常不一样,鲜艳又吸引人。

真是一只令人惊艳的鸟。

10. Crested Kingfisher, 冠鱼狗, Megaceryle lugubris, ヤマセミ

update 202602

We spent our last morning at the same spot and decided to just have some fun with this lovely kingfisher — lots of laughter and great moments. The whole morning was covered in mist, so quite a bit of post-processing was needed to reduce the noise and haze. The bird dived around five times without any success, but this rather unskilled fisherman still gave us plenty of action and a fun session capturing BIF shots.

我们把最后一个早晨留在同一个地点,决定和这只可爱的翠鸟好好玩一玩,一整早充满了笑声和乐趣。清晨雾气很重,后期需要花不少功夫来降低噪点、去除雾气。它大约俯冲了五次都没有成功,但这位“捕鱼技术不太熟练”的家伙,还是让我们玩得很开心,也拍到了不少精彩的飞版照片。

A short birding trip to northern Thailand turned into a pleasant surprise. After securing our two main targets, we decided to keep birding and see what else we could find. We knew a Crested Kingfisher was around, but the local ranger and guide kept telling us this species is usually only active in the morning.

Still, we decided to try our luck and reached the site at noon. After a few minutes of chatting by the river, a large bird suddenly flew in and perched right in front of us. We all shouted, “Kingfisher!”

The beautiful Crested Kingfisher perched not far away and even fed on a fish, putting on a fantastic show and giving us a great chance for photos. Sadly, I missed the actual fish-catching moment—I couldn’t decide which direction to wait, and just as I was moving, it dived!

一次短暂的泰国北部观鸟之旅,竟带来了惊喜。在顺利找到两大目标鸟种后,我们决定继续尝试看看还能遇到什么鸟。我们知道附近有冠鱼狗,但当地护林员和向导一直告诉我们,这种鸟通常只在早上出现。

尽管如此,我们还是决定中午去碰碰运气。到达河边后,聊了几分钟,突然一只体型很大的鸟飞来,直接停在我们面前。我们立刻喊了出来:“鱼狗!”

这只美丽的冠鱼狗停得并不远,还叼着一条鱼进食,精彩地展示了一番,让我们有很好的拍摄机会。可惜的是,我没拍到它捕鱼的瞬间——正犹豫该等哪个方向时,我一边走,它就突然俯冲下水了!

11. Black-backed Forktail, 黑背燕尾, 黑背燕尾, Enicurus immaculatus, セグロエンビシキチョウ

update 202602

“Short North-Thailand trip goals achieved! 😊 On our river adventure, our guide asked if we wanted to spot the elusive Black-backed Forktail. I said why not? 🤔 What followed was pure patience-testing magic! 🙄 We waited on a rock, and with some playback, the bird kept coming back for more… giving us an epic photo op 📸. Not sure who got the perfect shot, but I’m pretty sure C got it and the others got zilch 😂👍.”

“非常短暂北泰国之行的目标达成了!😊 在河边冒险时,我们的导游问我们是否想看看罕见的黑背燕尾。我说为什么不呢? 🤔 接下来就是纯粹的考验耐心的时刻!🙄 我们在岩石上等待了一会儿,播放了一些鸟叫声后,鸟儿不断飞回来,让我们拍到了绝佳的照片 📸。不知道谁拍到了完美的一刻,但我肯定C拍到了,而其他人则是零收获 👍。”

One of Malaysia’s shyer birds—still remember how we used to rely on a hide in Selangor years ago just to get decent photos. But this time at Danum Valley, they came incredibly close to us—no hiding needed! Not just one, but around four birds came in for a great photo session. 😄

这是马来西亚比较害羞的鸟之一,还记得多年前在雪兰莪时,我们还需要搭伪装棚才能拍到好照片。没想到这次在丹浓谷,它们竟然主动走近我们!而且不是一只,大约有四只不断靠近,让我们尽情拍照 😄
