update 20231225

– it is going to end the Sumatra Birding tour here, it is enjoyable we only hit into rain end of the tour which is amazing. My 2023 end with the memorize trip here. But overall is wet, muddy and few places of landslides. As we just concentrate on west-center, we mostly at Sub-montane or Montane birding. I am mostly using CANON RF200800 and CANON R3 for rainforest environment. It is challenging with such long focal length with small aperture (will share more experience later regard the lens)

– this bird seem quite common any where here, we seen and heard almost any where even night roosting at montane area. Such a beautiful bird and hope to see the Java version soon (which I missed 16 years ago)

– 苏门答腊观鸟团就这样结束了。我的2023 也写上一个美好的结局。虽然,时雨季可是我们除了最后一天最后一刻才下了一点雨。虽然,几乎每个地方都湿湿的。这次我们在西-中部,全程在800-2100米。我也几乎都用上佳能 RF200800 为了测试在雨林的好与坏(迟点再分享这只长焦段+小光圈)

– 这次算看这鸟最多的吧,几乎哪都看到他。连夜观也看到。这鸟真的很漂亮也希望有机会到爪哇,看看那只爪哇的。(16年前错过后)

– another Christmas spend with my best guest, buddy .. this time choose have special target tour to Sumatra. After whole day travel, we arrived first birding accommodation from 4am – 4pm .. 1+ hour flight and ~7hours drive ..next day morning, we decided to change ours original plan for Ground Cuckoo, but I didn’t see one and only heard twice for almost whole day in a very lovely forest.

– this bird flying in-front of us while we waiting ours target and having ours hot tea session. What a beauty, still remember ~18 years ago I missed my Java trogon … and today see this very look a-like endemic of Sumatra ..

– 另一个圣诞节与我的好朋友+客人在森林里度过。这次我们选了苏门答腊。经过12小时。。车+飞机(1+小时)+车(7++小时)我们到住宿时已过了4点下午休息后,我们决定换我们行程先去找找地鹃。可是,一整天在森林都没看到还只听到2声。

还好这一只这么漂亮的鸟竟然在我们喝热茶等鸟时,竟然自己飞过来。上帝很厉害配颜色。

We saw one just 3-5feet from us stand there and cannot take any picture and this bird same just came to us and look at us .. beautiful moment even not a good picture compare to previous feeding station picture but it is a different satisfaction to find one wild..

– 我们在找地鹃时,那个点蛮多这鸟的。我们最近的一只竟然跳到我们3-5尺前看着我们,对焦都不行。这一只在第2天我们也在找地鹃时,他自己跳出来看我们。野拍的,我们会比较记住那一这么美好的一刻。

In the noon time very soon we have another chance to photograph it ..

– 到达鸟点(其实不是什么鸟点,就是条64公里的森林边的路)我们第一停下来,因为看到苏门答腊啸鸫。附近就听到我不很熟悉的声音,很快的Dwi 讲是鹛。也不容易的看到,当然也不好拍。。动作快+暗。在中午回程中,还好给个机会在听到。这次就好好拿下。

– 这次苏门答腊鸟行主要目标之一。我们用了一个早上在所谓的“点”没等到什么,加上另一个早上也只是听了鸟叫2声。过了2个早上,我们都在谈下次几时再来时听到鸟叫。我梦们就决定走去找鸟,不等了。还好在走不久后,就没个人看的高高兴兴+拍到照片

– Any how it is 20th Pitta for guest…

– Am using new CANON RF200800 which is small aperture lens. But with a travel tripod assist, I managed to have most the picture hit on at ~1/10-1/30

– 主要目标之一,我们在找猫头鹰时找到一只睡觉的。之后我们也到“喂食点”看这鸟与其他的。这鸟只是在一早没光前出来。

– 主要还是用佳能最新 RF200800, 光圈很小(为了轻便),可是有小脚架的帮忙。我主要还是拍到1/10-1/30照片。

– 雨其他孔雀稚一样, 漂亮,害羞。都不容易看到。在施氏八色鸫“喂食”点,有一双回来。很漂亮可是可惜他们在,都会赶其他鸟。所以我们一个早上都没看到其他鸟来。(他们出现后)

202312, Mount Kerinchi, Sumatra, Indonesia

#####

12. Rajah Scops-Owl, 拉氏角鸮, 蘇門答臘角鴞, Otus brookii, ラジャーオオコノハズク

a owl we always heard and wanted to see in Borneo, even it can be different sub-species or species (in future) but It is much easier here .. a small owl like other small and active in dark

– 这鸟是我们在婆罗洲非常希望拍到的鸟。几乎不可能看到。虽然应该是不一样亚种。在这非常容易,虽然也有一定的难度。小,不容易辨别方向。

update 20240114

– 虽然在这,当地导游都会找到早上版的。可是我与我的客人都是喜欢自己找找(不喜欢等人家找到叫你去看)。第一个早上,我们就去找找。到森林后,没很久就找到了。(很不可思议的找到,它没叫!。。不啦我是有热量仪相机找到啦)

– almost not possible to get the picture of this endemic bird with bird watcher … but lucky or not so lucky the main target is no show … while we waiting, I personal looking for this bird and lucky to have this better moment for photo and I actually got 3 in 1 frame.

– 几乎不大可能在短时间拍到这特有种鸟,非常活跃,跳非常快。可是运气好(还是不好?)我们主要目标没出现,只好在这等待。让我有一点时间去拍拍这鸟。鹪鹛啊,我最爱的鸟种。

202312, Mount Kerinchi, Sumatra, Indonesia

14. Sumatran Treepie, 马来树鹊, 蘇門答臘樹鵲, Dendrocitta occipitalis, シラガオナガ

Again this is another reason setup customize button for my R3 which can shoot in complex environment (just like this) point the focus points (I using 5 point) on to any part of the bird and eye will be lock focus ..very useful and suitable for people like shooting wildbird in move

– 我们以为可以在喂食点看到,可是等了一个早上都没声音。我们没等,在上山路中听到也蛮容易找到(有神器嘛)。还有这是个好教材,我的CANON R3, 为了快速拍到懂得鸟通常都是开全福/中部区域对焦(鸟眼)可是在这种情况是应该很难找到的(有时也可以)。可是我选了其中一个钮,放了5点对焦(鸟眼)。通常找不到后,我很快用这个对焦钮碰鸟的任何一个部位。立刻就可以找到鸟眼了。。真的很好用!

– when I am at the feeding station (without feeding, how we can see it so well), it is boring so I am trying to have some “small like mosquitoes” series support one of my friend always like to shoot environment shots

– 在喂食点,很闷的拍摄(可是没喂食,可以看到这鸟这么清楚吗?)。所以觉得拍拍不一样的,有位朋友就喜欢。“蚊子这么大-系列”我也来几张。接下来的照片都是环境照。

update 202301

– love to have slow motion 4k recording. R3 still good option overall for me . compare to R7, R6II for the moment. Fast AF, Accurate AF, button orientation, battery, speed, video format etc

– a lovely and shy bird captured in control environment(feeding station in wild jungle). It is real tough to have it in wild environment.

比起R5/R6II/R7,还是喜欢佳能R3。对焦(暗)‘对焦准确度,速度;相机的键;电池;视屏。

– 一只非常美与害羞的鸟。没在喂食店几乎很难拍到。这是在喂食点拍摄。需要拍的可以联系我。

update 202210

– sometime really need to give some respect to Bird photographers that really have patient. I don’t have any good photo for this bird before this group of birds that never stop come even heavy rain.

– 真的佩服摄鸟人,有这么好的耐心。这鸟我见过无数次,可是从来没机会拍到照片。这次,鸟来了无数次。下大雨也来。(27++只)。公母同站。

101. Indian Peafowl, 蓝孔雀, 藍孔雀, Pavo cristatus, インドクジャク

An unmistakable, large ground bird. The unmistakable iridescent blue male spreads out its ornamental upper tail feathers when courting females. Females have a shorter tail, an iridescent green neck, and browner plumage. Found in forest, forest edge, and agricultural land. Often seen on paths or alertly feeding in the undergrowth. Can be fairly confiding especially when found close to human habitation. Its loud screaming “may-yow” calls are heard incessantly during the rainy season. [eBird]

蓝孔雀,是鸡形目雉科 [10]孔雀属中的一种鸟。 [11]蓝孔雀是鸡类中的“巨人”,雄鸟和雌鸟的羽色有差,雄鸟头上具冠羽,头、颈和胸部均为蓝色,尾羽并不长,构成尾屏的尾上覆羽可达身长的2倍,平时合拢托在身后,开屏时屏面宽约3米,高约1.5米,绚丽多彩。羽质细长,在阳光的照耀下,更显得鲜艳夺目。 [10]雌鸟相对于雄鸟来说,身形比较小, [12]羽毛是暗绿、灰色和蓝色的混合色,以灰绿色为主。

a very beautiful dark, highland partridge, saw it move it pair

update 202401

– another bird suppose to hope come to feeding station but not, but we managed to heard and found the bird. Again this is another reason setup customize button for my R3 which can shoot in complex environment (just like this) point the focus points (I using 5 point) on to any part of the bird and eye will be lock focus ..very useful and suitable for people like shooting wildbird in move

– 我们以为可以在喂食点看到,可是等了一个早上都没声音。我们没等,在上山路中听到也蛮容易找到(有神器嘛)。还有这是个好教材,我的CANON R3, 为了快速拍到懂得鸟通常都是开全福/中部区域对焦(鸟眼)可是在这种情况是应该很难找到的(有时也可以)。可是我选了其中一个钮,放了5点对焦(鸟眼)。通常找不到后,我很快用这个对焦钮碰鸟的任何一个部位。立刻就可以找到鸟眼了。。真的很好用!
