This is my first time birding at Malim Nawar Perak. I came to this area before but could not find the birding pond therefore I go home without birding. This time I'm doing some extra search and manage to find the spot.
A group of Terns
Pin Tailed Snipe
An example of symbiosis
(This time between a plant and an army of red ants, luckily I didn't get bitten by the ants)
A herd of water buffaloes (A part of larger herd)
The buffaloes are intimidating beasts especially when the surrounding your car (read kancil) when they're crossing the road.
White Breasted Waterhen
Black Winged Stilt
Blue Tailed Bee eater
