Report on a recent trip to malaysia

Hi,

My name is Mat, and I live in Brentwood, Essex, in the UK.
Whilst not really an active birder in this country, I do like birding whilst abroad, and have been a regular visitor to Canada and the USA, Australia and more recently Malaysia and Borneo.
I joined the Forum in order to post a report on a recent trip to Malaysia that my dad and myself undertook in March.

Hope that this provides some ideas for people planning to visit Malaysia and I would welcome any comments anyone has on it's content.

Any questions please feel free to contact me on or off forum.

cheers,


Mat Wilson.

Hi Mat, Welcome to Birdforum, on behalf of all the moderators and staff here.

I can see you've been a useful Member already ; I'll have to find some time to read this report!

Cheers,

Andy.

Hiya

there are a couple of reports in there that could do with being passed on to the relevant bodies and being formally recorded - Nordmann's Greenshank and Japanese Paradise Fly for example. I can do this for you if you would like...

drop me a PM to let me know.

Tim

Thanks for the warm words of welcome. I look forward to reading a few other peoples reports and geting involved in some of the dsicussions. I'm just taking a while to navigate around this beast and then I'll be away.
