update 202606

This is the first bird of our special Rail-Babbler target tour. We walked into the forest, and before we could even get a good photo of any other birds, this one was already actively calling and flying near us. It took a while to get a reasonable shot, but on day two at Lenggor Forest, we encountered it again. This time, its better behavior allowed us to get much better pictures. It was an amazing bonus for the tour, as we didn’t expect such a great photo session with this active bird.

这是我们这次 白眉长颈鸫目标鸟团的第一只鸟。我们刚走进森林，还没来得及拍到其他鸟的好照片，这只鸟就一直在我们附近活跃地鸣叫和飞行。花了不少时间才拍到一张过得去的照片，但第二天在冷格森林（Lenggor Forest）我们又遇到了它。这次它的配合度更高，让我们拍到了更好的照片。这真是行程中的一个额外惊喜，因为我们没想到能和这只活跃的鸟儿进行这么棒的拍摄。

update 202508

Another very special tour—so happy we managed to see this unique monotypic species (one of the three target species in Malaysia) with great views! We did struggle a bit with the Rail-babbler though… it hasn’t responded at all for the past 1.5 days. Fingers crossed we’ll have better luck in the next two days!

又是一次特别的行程，我们很幸运地清楚看到这个独特的单种鸟类（马来西亚目标鸟种之一，共三个）。不过在寻找白眉长颈鸫还是很不活跃，过去一天半都没有回应。希望接下来两天能更幸运！

update 202406

– another special trip to this “South” of Peninsular Malaysia but this time we actually target only Malaysian Rail-Babbler and Cinnamon-rumped Trogon. Day1 , we already have this bird again with better view and photo and the Rail-Babbler give a good view but …

– an active bird that everyone seem special look for this bird family

– 又一个特别安排摄鸟行，为了白眉长颈鸫+橙腰咬鹃. 可是我们一道，这一只这么稀有+特别的鸟就出来迎客。我们也很快拿下，可是白眉长颈鸫虽然出来蛮久。。。可是。。。。

#####

– a uncommon special bird family, a very black and active bird to be seen. It is not easy almost whole Malaysia except some South part of Malaysia

– we keep heard and miss this special bird for a long tour but it is so easy at the end of the extension.

– 蛮不普通的其中一种鸟种。非常害羞，活跃。几乎都不容易见到，除了在西马南部

– 19天观鸟团，就见到它飞来飞去。非常不容易，就在加长部分非常容易就见到了。

2. White-necked Babbler, 白耳穗鹛, 白耳穗鶥, Stachyris leucotis, シラボシモリチメドリ, KEKICAU-KANTAN CERUN

update 202606

This babbler has an incredibly limited distribution, making it tough to find a good location to spot one. But luck was on our side! After a heavy rain, this trail came alive with amazing species like the Maroon-breasted Philentoma, Brown Fulvetta, Banded Broadbill, and Striped Wren-Babbler. Even so, this particular bird gave us a hard time behind the lens because it was just so energetic. I am incredibly glad we managed to capture this rare and active beauty.

这种眉的分布范围非常有限，很难找到理想的观测地点。但我们真的很幸运！在一场大雨过后，我们在这条步道上遇到了许多珍稀鸟类，比如栗胸王鹟、褐雀鹛、斑阔嘴鸟和纹鹪鹛。即便如此，面对如此活力十足的小鸟，拍摄过程依然充满挑战。非常高兴能记录到这种既罕见又活跃的鸟类。

#####

update 202407

– another success “Rail-Babbler” target tour, after got ours main target. We start do casual birding, got this bird calling in the morning and managed to spent some good time with this bird (even my camera having some issue force me using MF)

– 另一个“白眉长颈鸫”目标团。在第二天把那鸟拿下后。我们就随便看看鸟，在一个早上。在听到他叫时，很快就拿下。虽然我的相机有些问题被逼用手动对焦（这鸟可是跳的非常快的）

#####

– 2nd trip to this special location for special targets. This beautiful, rare bird some how not the main target we here for. But we normally heard and seen them well so never waste we spend some time to have good look of this bird. But for this trip, it is a target so we spend one special early morning for this and not bad for the outcome and some birds come close

– a very active bird and black-rufous overall normally move in pair

– 这个雨第2次到这特别的鸟点找很特别的鸟种。这么一只漂亮稀有的鸟也不不是目标鸟。可是这一次，朋友们是要这鸟的。所以我们用其中一个早上找这鸟。还好，给我们拍够够。

#####
– a boring evening … not really as main target no sight at all. But very lucky to have this bird give us good show for about 5 minutes. active and rare bird
– 很活跃+害羞的鸟。下午到达立刻找目标，可是目标完全没声，没影。还好这一只这么难的的鸟出来让我们看够够。

3. 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 202606

It is hard to believe that we managed to spot our main target within the first hour of our walk into the forest. It was incredibly kind to us, offering a fantastic 10-minute encounter. Although the bird kept moving, making photography quite challenging, it was an amazing experience to watch it walking and displaying, followed later by what we believe to be another male.

真不敢相信，我们走进森林的第一小时就顺利找到了目标鸟种。它对我们非常友好，让我们近距离观察了足足十分钟。尽管它一直在走动，拍照难度很大，但能亲眼目睹它走路以及随后的求偶展示，依然是一次令人惊叹的体验；随后我们还见到了另一只疑似雄性的个体。

#####

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 202408

– within 24 hours, we got this bird again with much better view this time. All have perfect view of the shy bird..it is really fun to see this bird walk slow infront of us.

– a shy bird always difficult to spot and walk almost close to ground only

– 在24小时内看到这鸟2次。第二次，竟然比第一次更好。非常高兴在我们面前，慢慢的走像模特儿一样。真的很美。

– 一只非常害羞的鸟，通常都在地面山慢慢的走的。幸运啊

#####

– 终于完成很长的观鸟团。西马中部，婆罗洲，西马南部。真的很累。这只非常特别的鸟是大家主要目标鸟之一。我看到2次，第一次8/10个人都看的很好在石头上转圈。第二次（只有4个人）慢慢走过好几次。

update 202508

After successfully seeing both main target species in Peninsular Malaysia, we took it easy on our final morning with some casual birding. The forest was quiet most of the time, and we almost decided to wrap up the session—
Then suddenly, a surprise!

One of the woodpeckers we haven’t seen in nearly two years appeared, along with four other woodpecker species—all at close range. From a slow morning to an exciting finish!

在成功看到马来半岛的两种目标鸟后，我们决定在最后一个早上轻松观鸟。但整个早上森林都很安静，我们差点就决定收工了——
突然间，惊喜出现！

一只大约两年没见的啄木鸟突然现身，还有另外四种啄木鸟也都靠得很近。原本无聊的早晨，变成了一个精彩的收尾！

10. Red-crowned Barbet, 花彩拟鴷, 花彩擬鴷, Psilopogon rafflesii, ニシキゴシキドリ, TAKUR UBUN MERAH

update 202508

After getting our main target—the Malaysian Rail-babbler—we enjoyed a more relaxed birding session. This bird had been calling loudly for a few days, but we were too focused on the Rail-babbler to pay much attention.
Finally, we took the time to look for it—and wow, it really is a gorgeous bird!

—

在成功找到我们的主要目标——白眉长颈鸫之后，我们终于可以轻松观鸟了。其实这只鸟已经连续几天在叫了，但之前我们太专注目标鸟，一直没理它。
现在终于有时间找它，结果真的很漂亮！

11. Crimson-breasted Flowerpecker, 红胸锯齿啄花鸟, 紅胸鋸齒啄花鳥, Prionochilus percussus, ムネアカハナドリモドキ, SEPAH-PUTERI PELANGI BIASA

update 202509

The forest has been unusually quiet for the past two days — even common species like bulbuls, flowerpeckers, and sunbirds are nowhere to be seen. Thankfully, this bird was one of the few that came low and close, feeding calmly without being bothered by our presence.

过去两天森林异常安静，连最常见的鹎鸟、啄花鸟和太阳鸟都不见踪影。还好这只鸟愿意靠近，并且安心进食，完全不受我们打扰，是少数还能好好观察和拍摄的鸟之一。

12. Black-and-white Bulbul, 黑白鹎, 黑白雙色鵯, Microtarsus melanoleucos, モンツキヒヨドリ, MERBAH BAHU PUTIH

update 202606

13. Whiskered Treeswift, 小须凤头雨燕, 小須鳳頭雨燕, Hemiprocne comata, コシラヒゲカンムリアマツバメ, Layang-Layang Berjambul Kecil

Update 202606

#####

Always love checking in on this amazing bird nest, and this time it is even better since the chick is at its cutest, completely hairless stage. Treeswift nests are always a top choice for photography, though they are rarely at a good height. This one is in a pretty decent spot, and I do not think anyone else has found it yet. I really hope it stays undisturbed. It is another great find while birding. If we only stick to “waiting” in one spot, we would definitely miss gems like this.

我总是喜欢去观察这个最神奇的鸟巢，这次更棒，因为刚好遇到了雏鸟最可爱的阶段，全身无毛。凤头雨燕的巢向来是摄影的最佳选择，但它们并不总是在合适的高度。这次的位置还不错，我想应该还没有其他人发现它，希望它不会像其他鸟巢一样受到干扰。这是观鸟时又一个棒的收获，如果我们只是死守在一个地方“盲目等待”，肯定就会错过这只鸟了。
