Oriental Pied Hornbill at Telecommunication Tower

Spotted this noisy pair of Oriental Pied Hornbill (Anthracoceros albirostris) at a Telecommunication Tower about 500 meter from my house.  Probably in mating ritual - male above. Breeding season for hornbills in Malaysia generally starts from January until July.

Birding and Flood

Can't go back to my home town (Temerloh) because of flood. Nothing to do, so took out my camera for quick birding at my backyard.
Found this 'Kelicap Mayang Kelapa' aka Brown-throated Sunbird (Anthreptes malacensis) (male) foraging at unknown flower. Edit:  after searching the net, I found the flower name:  Zigzag plant, local name 'Pokok Lipan'  scientific name: Euphorbia tithymaloides. Source: Wikipedia
