Bulbul of Malaysia Part 3

I would say that the following Bulbuls are not as common as Bulbuls in my previous 2 postings, at least at my usual birding sites.

I’ve been trying to get better shots of this Yellow-Bellied Bulbul for quite sometime but yet to get any. They seem to be quite uncommon.

I’ve had a few brief encounters with the Ochraceous Bulbul and here are some of their images that I managed to capture.

And I’ve got images of this Bulbul which I think should be Puff-Backed Bulbul but I’m not too sure of the ID. May be those experts out there could confirm the ID.

  1. Really nice pictures of the Yellow bellied Bulbul Ari - such a deep, bright shade of yellow. Sorry, can't help you with IDing the others but you certainly seem to have lots of bulbuls to keep you occupied.

  2. Yes it is a Puff-backed Bulbul, a really nice find indeed! I've only seen a few nice shots of this bird, and have only seen it once in southern Thailand.

  3. Thanks Phil and Ayuwat for the ID, both the Yellow-Bellied and the Puff-Backed only allowed me just a few shots before disappearing into the forest.
