– a special almost represent Sulawesi as almost any where you can see symbol

A massive black-and-white megapode with a rose-pink breast and a diagnostic prominent knob on the nape. Found in lowland and hill forest, in areas near beaches or areas with volcanic sands in which they lay their eggs. Immatures show a blacker head with a white throat and a tufted crest. Occurs in pairs that forage on the ground and roost in trees by night. Often best seen at known egg-laying sites, either during laying sessions, or roosting in trees nearby. Generally silent, but occasionally gives a loud, bubbling “waow.” [Ebird]

Tupaiidae series : Treeshrew | 树鼩科 | liewwk Nature 1 [update 20230709]

Tupaiidae is one of two families of treeshrews, the other family being Ptilocercidae. The family contains three living genera and 19 living species.[1] The family name derives from tupai, the Malay word for treeshrew and also for squirrel which tupaiids superficially resemble. The former genus Urogale was disbanded in 2011 when the Mindanao treeshrew was moved to Tupaia based on a molecular phylogeny.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupaiidae

We saw some movement from far up and Nature guide point the “small torch” toward to the subject and shout “flying” .. what I did just point my camera to the sky and again #CANONR3 just lock focus and track the subject .. the picture may not best quality as it is shooting ISO16000 and picture is heavy under exposure.

(we don’t know flying behaviors before capture like nesting or some feeding spot)

– 我们刚看完大鼯鼠飞下。就向森林走去,我们的向导喊“飞”。没时间想,我立刻相机对上。对焦完全锁定,追焦几乎没错过。虽然画质一般,ISO16000 还要很暗(后期加光)。可是还是可以看到佳能R3的对焦+追焦的恐怖。(这个不是陷阱对焦是突然飞出来)

But a bird just fly infront of us ~10feet away. Bingo.. it is the star bird. This bird very tame compare to other , stay calm, close and allow us move and get close to have some good photos.
