It has been some birding with great views of 5 hornbills, 5 broadbills, 2 trogons, and so much more. Although we dipped on Garnet Pitta and Banded Pitta, the birding was great! an unexpectable rufous-backed kingfisher suddenly passed by while we were looking at the crimson-breasted flowerpecker. a red-bearded bee-eater was very cooperative in the morning by showing itself in an open horizontal branch a few feet away. all this in a span of 12 hours birding in the lowland and highland in peninsular malaysia.
