Birds of Gunung Nuang, Hulu Selangor

Recently I had the opportunity to join the SBBG to Gunung Nuang (Sept 2011) for a half-day birding trip. We saw quite a number of wintering birds and here are some of them:

A Yellow-Rumped Flycatcher

This bird is said to breed as far as Mongolia, China and Korea. Certaintly a remarkable bird !

Another winter visitor which is more common - a juvenile Tiger Shrike.

This is a tiny Rufous Piculet spotted amongst the dark and thick bamboo trunks.

This is a more common Spectacle Bulbul.

Another winter visitor which is only abundant during its migrating season - an Asian Paradise Flycatcher - this is a female version.


This is a common but yet not so easy to spot Grey-Breasted Spiderhunter

An inquisitive Black & Red Broadbill. Looks like a sub-adult.


This is another common winter visitor - A Grey Wagtail.

This is a Black-Crested Bulbul with its majestic crest upright.

A more common Red-Eyed Bulbul.
