Birds of Fraser Hill Part 2

08th April 2011, Fraser Hill

 

I was in Fraser Hill again a week later to capture more images of these ever present birds. Here are some of them.

This Lesser Racket-Tailed Drongo can be considered a permanent resident at Jelai Hotel, no bird photographer would ever leave Jelai Hotel without images of this fierce looking bird!

It is quite common to see these birds without the tail extensions.

Some LRT Drongo has pendant tipped tail shaft which can be up to 40cm long

Another favorite of Photographers at Jelai Hotel is this adorable pair of  Little Pied Flycatcher. The male bird certainly has bolder colors compared to the female

  7. Hi Ari, I'm not surprised the Little Pied Flycatcher is such a favourite, it is a stupendous looker and your super pictures just show the birds at their best. Actually the lttle female is my favourite picture,like a tiny, immaculate Redstart.
