Suggestions for birding in Kuala Lumpur (2 Viewers)

[Winsley]

We are planning a birding trip in Kuala Lumpur between the 1st and 4th of May. We have already decided on Fraser hill and Sungai Congkak, and for the remaining 2 days we would like to choose between Kuala Selangor Nature Park, Bukit Tinggi Japanese Garden, Taman Botani Negara Shah Alam, and would be very interested in any suggestions you may have. If there are other places that are more worthwhile to visit (not too far from KL), I'd appreciate it if you guys could let me know the name of the place!

I suspect, with only 4 days, it's better to spend a few days at one spot than eating up your time driving and missing a lot of key species simply through lack of time to properly cover trails or just bad luck. So I would just go with more time at Fraser's Hill

This! To put it in perspective, I have spent three weeks at Fraser's alone.

Yeah I will be visiting in June, and I think we are spending 3 days there on a week long trip. 3 or 4 days seems pretty normal for a lot of shorter tours for Fraser's Hill, when I was looking at itineraries

Thanks for your good adivce! So, do I need a local guide to Fraser's Hill or just take a Grab's taxi for a round trip?
