四月双溪布洛华语导游Madarin guide walk@SBWR,April(XXIX)

It is a sunny Sunday again. 
Most migratory birds have returned to their breeding area and only several little egrets are still foraging in SBWR. Besides migratory birds, resident birds like collard kingfisher, black-naped oriole, purple heron, or sunbirds are also interesting feathered friends here.
 The main bridge was once a good site to spot crocodiles. However a construction project aims to protect the river bank disturbed them and we didn't spot crocodiles here for around half a year. Today, we found one young crocodile returned and hope the giant one can also come back to this perfect basking heaven.

This young crocodile is staying around the main bridge  recently

裕华园噪鹃Asian Koel@Chinese Garden

今天在裕华园近距离观察了噪鹃Asian Koel (Eudynamys scolopacea),可惜光线不是很好,贪吃的雌鸟动个不停,而雄鸟只做了短暂停留就飞去别的果树了。
噪鹃雌鸟,全身棕色,有白色斑点, 血红眼睛。
噪鹃雄鸟远看像乌鸦,不过那血红眼睛是最明显的识别标志。

小家伙很好奇,东张西望的。不过很快就被老妈喊回隐蔽的地方了。
BTW:如果我鉴定错了,请指正,谢谢!

双溪布洛的冠斑犀鸟 Oriental Pied Hornbill in SBWR

双溪布洛目前也安装了几个智能型的鸟窝,以吸引冠斑犀鸟入住。访客中心的展板显示已有一对冠斑犀鸟安家落户了,不过是在“禁止入内”区域。 庆幸的是,有只冠斑犀鸟常常光顾main bridge,这组照片就是在桥旁拍到的。

所以,下次关顾双溪布洛的时候,记得多留意一下你的头顶:说不定有只冠斑犀鸟正在大快朵颐。
