GROUND BIRD 6/15 - Crested Fireback Pheasant

 Crested Fireback Pheasant

The Crested Fireback is a resident of Malaysia. found in dark dense lowland to hilly forest upto 1200m.

I chance on a family of 3 pairs taking turn to cross the road. No chicks though. They were crossing one by one trotting and flying across in succession. Just got the last 2 birds at 40m away in the late dull morning in Bkt Rengit. This bird is commonly seen in Taman Negara/ Gunung Tahan.
