Bali - March, 2004 (1 Viewer)

[Loutsy]

Hi - I was looking through some old photos I took in Bali in the Nusa Dua area the end of March, 2004, prior to when I became a birder. I have gone through a data base of photos of Bali birds, but was unable to identify them all. I believe the first photo is a White-headed Munia and the last photo is a white (breeding) stork, but could not find a proper name. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated so I could add them to my Life List! Thanks in advance!

1. White-headed munia.
2. Olive-backed sunbird.
3. Yellow-vented bulbul.
4. Cattle egret (left) + presumably 2 other cattle egrets.

1. Not sure if I remember these being designated as 'Pale-headed'?

1. As far as I can see, they start on the next island to the right, whatever that is.

Lombok?

Dunno. Check a map.

Definitely Lombok, I remember ticking Pale-headed on the Gili Islands but the range given on Scythebill is confusing. I also remember seeing my first 'White-headed', not far from KL airport.

Pale'headed is also stated to include L.m vietnamensis (Dickinson and Christidis) which is a really odd range?
