Bukit Fraser is mainly lush green. The birds are not. Jeff Kingma shared with me an abundance of photos of those birds showing off their colours. Enough to do something you would never expect from me: a photo post on Bukit Fraser.
Peter Penning is a sustainability management consultant who spends many weeks abroad away from his homes in The Netherlands and Portugal. Although work distracts him regularly from the observation of birds, he has managed to see a great many species regardless. He firmly believes in the necessity of birders to contribute to conservation. He supports BirdLife in the Netherlands, South Africa and Portugal (SPEA – Sociedade Portuguesa para o Estudo das Aves). Peter sees himself as a great photographer - a vision cruelly conflicting with reality.
Hearing about a photo post from Peter, I was very worried. No need, it seems.
That silver breasted broadbill is elegant and just stunning!! Great pics!
I guess that Bukit Fraser is what we used to call Fraser’s Hill. I’ve enjoyed some great birding there, but many years ago. Good to hear that it is still so productive.
Bukit Fraser is indeed the Bahasa Malaysia term for Fraser’s Hill
David, Peter just wants to show off with his knowledge of Bahasa, even though he probably does not speak it.
Now, that’s unfair! Nope, the signs on the road point to Bukit Fraser (Kai, I explained this very clearly in the post from a fortnight ago 😉 please pay attention), so as a service to our readers I wrote the term most likely found when traveling.
Peter, my apologies. I usually just look at the photos in your posts, don’t read them, though that has not served me particularly well in the past …
