A birding adventure in Sabah | Discover the Spectacular Avian Diversity of Borneo | Birds of Borneo
Welcome to "Birds of Borneo | a birding adventure in Sabah"! Join me on this 8-day journey through the rainforests of Borneo as I explore the incredible diversity of bird species in the region. From elusive and colorful species such as the Black-crowned Pitta and Scarlet-rumped Trogon, to majestic raptors like the Wallace's Hawk-Eagle and Brahminy Kite, this series is a must-see for all bird enthusiasts and nature lovers.
I encounter a wide range of bird species, including several species of hornbills, flycatchers, leafbirds, and woodpeckers. Throughout the journey, I witness the impressive hunting skills of the Peregrine Falcon and Bat Hawk, and catch glimpses of rarely seen species such as the Sabah Partridge and Large Frogmouth.

Cool, thanks!
Although I was born and raised in Sabah, I have never observed birds seriously there. And after watching your video, I just realized that there are so many beautiful birds in the forests of Sabah. Without realizing it I watched your video till the end. Thanks for sharing. Big LIKE for the video. Greeting from Singapore.

Thank you for your kind words and support! I'm thrilled to hear that my video has given you a newfound appreciation for the beautiful birds of Sabah. Greetings from Toronto!
All of these birds are new to me. I really enjoyed viewing them. HOWEVER, I wish you would give the birds names longer screen time than a nano second. Then your videos would rate a 10. I thought perhaps the birds were in the witness protection program.😇

Thank you for your feedback! Apologies for the quick glimpses; I'll make sure to improve and give the birds names more screen time in future videos.

Excellent!And I admire your generous support and information.I have seen few of your videos on other destinations too. Coming back to Sabah and birding I and my partner would like to know your travel arrangements from Kota Kinabalu and accommodation.Hiring a vehicle is viable or flying?I find accommodation and those tours are pretty expensive proposition for an average bird enthusiast and a photographer.Any suggestions for an affordable accommodation and travel.Greatly appreciate your suggestions

I traveled to Tabin by inland flight. Tabin can indeed be expensive, and I don't have any cheaper alternatives to suggest. For Kinabatangan River, I flew to Sandakan and then arranged everything through Romzie, at +60 11-3152 1176 on WhatsApp. He's experienced and offers reasonable prices for transportation and accommodation. As for RDC, I recommend staying at Sepilok B&B. It might not be the cheapest option, but it's the closest and allows for easy walking access to RDC for birding.
Great video. Thank you. A suggestion - leave out the click between photos. Detracts from the video.

Thank you very much for your advice. I originally intended to use shutter sound to enhance the effect, but it seems to have had the opposite effect. I won't use this method in the next video.
What bird sound audible on background "dah dah dah dit" at times 23:24, 23:28, 24:43 ?..thanks

Hi, that sound is likely from an Indian Cuckoo.

I didn't hire a birding guide for the entire trip. To go birding in Sabah, fly to the main city, Kota Kinabalu. For Tabin Wildlife Reserve, you can check packages that include bird guides: tabinwildlife.com.my/. In the Kinabatangan River area, you can contact Romzie via WhatsApp at +60 11‑3152 1176. He's an very experienced guide and can arrange everything for you. I stayed at Sepilok B&B near the Rainforest Discovery Centre (RDC), which is within walking distance for birding. Hope this information helps!
非常棒的旅程!拍也拍的很好啊! 我想问问,全程都是有鸟导安排和向导么?能不能把联系方式share一下?
