Avian Sighting October 2018 - Malkoha Galore Bukit Rengit


In Rengit  you can see 4 species of Malkohas in a single day. This is when bird luck give you the chance The first and most often seen is the Chestnut-breasted. Usually there is a pair of them here at Deerland.


The second one is the Red-billed which can also be commonly  seen in Bukit Tinggi Pahang.





 Malkoha no 3 is the Raffle's Malkoha is the smallest amongst the Malkohas you can see coming down to the lower canopies. It search for grub inside dead leaves hanging on foliage.











The no 4 Malkoha that I sighted here is the  Black bellied. It can be mistaken for the Green-billed. The only different is that the former have no white lining to its its scarlet facial skin.



So all in all ....can you beat or match  me to seeing 4 Malkohas in  one outing..............
