A total of 53 species in 4 hours. pretty awesome.
More on the sunbird story. Apparently the male sunbird recognized its mirror reflection as a potential rival and kept pecking on the "rival" for at least 3 minutes. Cool scene.
For me the climax of the day is the air battle between the two raptors. Or, more accurately, bullying instead of a fight, because the Crested Goshawk just kept fleeing...
So sad though is we saw housing development bit by bit taking over Pui O...
What used to be illegal dumping sites now turned into legal village house construction sites.
How many Pui O can we lose?
