Lama tak memburung sejak PKP Covid 19. Kamera dan telephoto tersimpan sejak sekian lama.

Pada ahad 27/12/2020, saya pergi ke tempat biasa - Padang Golf Raub.

Tiada burung hijrah , luar biasa atau lifer.

Burung Tempua, Female Baya Weavers, tak  jumpa pulak spesis jantan atau sarang.

Puas mengejar kumpulan tempua ni, dua gambar di atas je yang sharp.

A Sepasang  'Terkukur'  Spotted Dove (Stigmatopelia chinensis)

Wak-wak, White-breasted Waterhen, sangat pemalu lari ke dalam parit

Murai Gila - Pied Fantail (Rhipidura javanica),  di pokok senuduk. Tak dapat pulak  gambar masa ekor kembang.

Sepasang Burung Punai -Pink-necked Green Pigeon (Treron vernans), jauh bertengek didahan pokok leban.

400mm out of the dry box

After nearly 2 months of hibernating, finally, my telephoto is out...
and here are a common species in my backyard

Can you spot the similarities between this  Rhipidura javanica and  Canis lupis familiaris ?

Magpie Robin and Lizard

Have a look for more bird pictures at the Bird Photography Weekly @ Birdfreak.

Mad Bird - Murai Gila - SkyWatch Friday

This bird is really "Gila" (mad/crazy), never stay still - hyperactive, jumping around, jerking, gyrating, turning and fanning to show off its tail. Very difficult to photograph.

Fantail

Fantail (Murai Gila) visits my house this morning. This bird is really "Gila", never stay still-jumping around. Very difficult to photograph. In cloudy, misty morning, the shutter speed is so low 1/8 to1/13, with 300mm and f6.3 for sure the pictures are blurred. For my record /lifer here are the pics.
