Avian Nesting April 2019 - Long-tailed Broadbill Fraser's Hill

Normally I do not blog any active bird nesting unless I think its safe enough. There are at least two active nestings now in Bukit Fraser in  April 2019. For the past years, the Bishop trail has been the favorite spot where a pair have been building their nest high above the trail. This year is the same but a lot higher now. Feeding in progress as you read. 

Then the other nest is at Langgak Golf. It is my first time seeing a nesting here above a ravine but almost eye level to the road. It is about 40-50 off the road so it is quite safe for me to post now for all to visit and shoot the event. So again a gentle reminder - fellow birders please don't start cutting down branches to have a better view as there is enough open and unobstructed space for 20 pax at the port.  

Both the parent are responsible for preparing the nest. One was in charge on the top while the other at the bottom and inside.The nest is hanging precariously from the thorny rattan frond. It looks fragile and can break off during a thunderstorm but I think the birds know how hardy is rattan.
