I didn't know that Black-Throated Babblers are quite rare in other places until I read Madi's posting. Even though they are not as common as the Chestnut - Winged Babblers, their songs and calls can be heard almost everywhere around Kenyir Lake. I managed to get a few shots of this shy babbler recently while working at Saddle Dam F, Kenyir.
This Chestnut-Rumped Babbler is another common resident of Kenyir. You'll know when they're around by their loud & 'boisterous' singing ...
Mention the name 'Babblers' and the first image flashed in our mind is this very common and 'ever-friendly' Chestnut-Winged Babbler.
Great shots Ari!
ReplyDeleteThere are not rare in the right habitat - forest.
Great shots of the Babblers. Shooting babblers is a challenge in itself.The CR Babbler is a new one on me.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! The really rare, five-star babblers are White-necked and Grey-breasted. If you see any - let me know!!
