The Malaysian pied hornbill is common in my backyard. A pair of males and females fly low and make a loud call. They are an adaptable species that feed on figs, palm fruits, guava, papaya, rambutan and wild fruits from the nearby plantation.

This male landed on a signboard in front of my car park.

This bird's natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forest and tropical moist montane forest.

Suddenly, it appeared in my backyard, perched on top of a bamboo tree.
