The Black-naped Monarch has the most obvious and easily seen nest you can encounter during breeding season in the lowland forest like Bukit Rengit, Merapoh or Sg Perdik to name a few localities. Both the birds take the effort to build the nest usually along trails and road track and at 6-9 feet from the road level. In late May we saw 2 nests been made by possibly the same pair at about 20 ft apart from each other . Eventually this one was selected.
