I particularly wanted to get the ER Wren-babler because it has eluded me a couple of times,just because I was out of position by a few meters.Before I make my next attempt in Telapak Buruk. I will email you to see if you are keen to join me.ATiahfrodohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14927901602901779910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23654907.post-71511497180754355902012-05-07T15:35:36.389+08:002012-05-07T15:35:36.389+08:00haha, many of your expected rare migrants and vagr...haha, many of your expected rare migrants and vagrants are not easy to find...... seen none of these in Peninsular Malaysia...... but good luck, I guess you should still be able to find some Hoopoe, Common Buzzard and etc by the next season....jytouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13187121808214078185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23654907.post-16738865427802386132012-05-07T12:27:48.403+08:002012-05-07T12:27:48.403+08:00Thanks for the tips Hor Kee and Ronnie!

What I'm hoping for is more the "I saw one yesterday at such and such a place" type of gen.<br /><br />Thanks for the encouragement John. I will indeed keep plugging away on the high seas, but know that some trips to the sweaty, leech-infested jungle will be inevitable!digdeephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09647444686554017654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23654907.post-27061546558526574762012-05-06T10:59:43.827+08:002012-05-06T10:59:43.827+08:00Good Luck, Dave !

My dad has photographed both species in one trip there, albeit three years ago, along with the Black-Hooded Oriole at Kisap. The Eye-Browed WB is present in Larut, albeit at low densities. Common Buzzards are usually present at highland locales during the migrant season, recent years have them being seen at Bkt Tinggi. merapoh is a known place for the Crestless Fireback at Sg Relau, and I've heard Giant Pitta there too. The Grey-and-Buff Woodie should be found in lowland and hill forest, I've seen it at Larut a number of times as well as at the durian orchards at Burmese Pools. One Black-Headed Ibis did make an unexpected appearance at Permatang Nibong two years ago, but has not been seen since, so keep a lookout for it there. if you are heading to Perlis for the White-Fronted Scops Owl at the Park and the Jacana at the lake, I'll love to tag along too! Hhope this helps!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Hor KeeNeoh Hor Keenoreply@blogger.com
