I went for half day bird photography at Kemensah, Selangor with Madibirder, Ilyas and ZZlalog last Sunday.
Arrived at Zoo Negara front gate at 7.00am, and met Madi there. After a breakfast of roti canai telor (prata bread with egg) , we went straight to Pasun trail.
Here are a few pictures for my record.
National Zoo @ 7.00am
Rufous Woodpeckers
Blue-tail Bee-eater and Whiskered Treeswift
Everett's White-eye
All kind of BulbulsHa.., here are the birders / bird photographers -'Penembak burung'
ZZlalog with his Russian made Tair-33 300mm manual focus lens. Very unusual focusing knob/wheel below the lens. I respect him for using that.
Ilyas eyes wide open - searching for any movement of the leaves.
This was my 2nd LIFER that day - GREEN IORA (Aegithina viridissima)
Sorry, for poor quality of this picture. We were not so lucky to have a very few lifer. Never mind, there is always a next trip.
This elevation profile shows 12.1km distance travelled. The actual birding distance covered was less than that, maybe 6 km.
