Some birdies from Sime Forest

joeyao · 21st January 2005

Heard a lot about Sime Forest and went there this morning. Man! the place was swarmed with Homo sapiens

Despite the presence of hundreds of Homo sapiens including me and wife, I was fortunate to encounter 3 of the forest's residents. My advice to birders: Cheong Sime Forest only on weekdays.

White-Throated Kingfisher

Orange-Bellied Flowerpecker

Striped Tit-Babbler

Hi mervin
Looks like you've caught the bird flu

Well, click on the link below for the location of Sime Forest. If you drive, never park along Island Club Road, the traffic police will fine you.

Good catch Joe, like the WTKF and STB shots. Nice backlighting and BG on the WTKF.
