Unexpected
SE Asia: Thailand, Cambodia and Malaysia April
9 - May 9, 2003
- SE ASIA is always of great interest because
of the diversity of species from it's proximity to the Equator
and it's species movement from sources including India to the
West, China to the North, Mekong Delta to the East and from Java
and Sumatra to the South. The area is well studied from the time
of Alfred Russell Wallace but new discoveries continue...Garry
George reports...the last 12 days refer to Malaysia
Singapore, Peninsular Malaysia,
Sumatra, Java, Flores, Rinca and KomodoIslands 24th
May-4th August 2001.
- Taman Negara needs no introduction and provides
some of the best birding to be had in Malaysia in an ancient forest
setting. I found the birding difficult, tall 40-50m trees give
you a bad neck after a while and it was the most humid place I
have ever been to, my watch, supposedly waterproof to 30 m, steamed
up! Best bird goes to a Great Argus, which holds territory half
way down the Jenet Muda trail and showed in exactly the same place
three days running, he allowed me to within 10 m before casually
walking off in to the forest....Andy Adcock reports.
Sabah, Peninsular Malaysia and S.Thailand
28 March - 8 May 2001
- In April 2000 we undertook our first independent
birding trip in SE Asia to the main sites within Peninsular Malaysia.
As this proved reasonably successful we determined to undertake
an extended trip in 2001 with the following objectives: To see
a large cross section of the birds of Borneo including as many
of the “realistic”endemics as possible ( Of the 37 endemics
listed for Borneo we regarded Bornean Peacock Pheasant, Dulit
Frogmouth, Black Oriole, Black-browed Babbler as unrealistic leaving
33 possibles);To revisit FH to see Cutia, Rusty-naped Pitta and
Red-headed Trogon which we had missed on the 2000 trip and to
visit KNC in S Thailand for Gurney's Pitta...Moira and Graeme
Wallace report.
Malaysia (Bukit Fraser, Kuala
Selangor and Sekinchan) 24 February
- 4 March, 2001
- If you've ever fancied visiting an
exotic tropical destination, but have been worried about the difficulties
of doing so, then Malaysia is the perfect destination for you.
This is a very modern country, with excellent roads, easy driving,
good standards of accommodation and superb food, combined with
extremely friendly people and wonderful birding...Gruff Dodd
