Hi all,
I decided at the last minute to do a bit of birding during my short stay in Malaysia. Problem is, I couldn't find a field guide anywhere. So I've been hastily trying to learn Malaysian birds from pics on the internet.
I walked Trail 4 from Tanah Rata in the Cameron Highlands today and saw a few birds that I can't ID. Would appreciate the help. All pics taken today, 13th of Feb 2010.
The first two pics are the same bird. It looked at first like some kind of blue magpie. The bill and legs were a bright orange.
The bird in the third pic appeared in a small flock of five or six. They were noisy and not at all shy. Very flashy colours in direct light.
The fourth pic was quite a small bird that I've seen in gardens around here. It bobs its tail up and down as it walks.
