Yes, I was resting at the river bank when I notice some birds movement on the opposite site. I didn't have a speaker loud enough to call them.

Last Sunday must have been a day for B&R Broadbills. Never seen a B&R actually building a nest.The one i took in Kemensah was an already completed nest.Funny how they always build their nest dangling over water. A good angle shot Doc, exposing the full colours of the birds. Nice one!
