Malaysia is too big, difficult to know where the birds fly too. I first saw this specie in Thailand, but could not get satisfactory images. Great that you can get it in Singapore, and nice images too.

true being too big its hard to spot some truly rare bird by Singapore is small and at the southern end where many species are forced to stop for winter when they overshoot.

We are still waiting for some vagrants from Singapore that had quietly passed Malaysia to show up over the years, some did in fact do finally show up at least, now we are still highly hoping for Lesser Kestrel, this Redstart, Gadwall and a few more.

Wow.... those are a lifer to me. hope i can get that too. hope i can meet u guys in malaysia field one day.

Very nice. Not even found in my Guide book.

nice
