Every morning the resident Javan Mynas fly out over the sea and perform an aerial dance for our benefit.

Today was a wonderful day - two and a half thousand raptors, mostly Oriental Honey-Buzzards, with a sprinkling of Grey-faced Buzzards and Black Bazas, not to mention Barn Swallows, Fork-tailed Swifts, and Blue-throated and Blue Tailed Bee-eaters, all on their way north....Remember, you are coming to join us this weekend, right? Ilham Resort, Port Dickson. Bird Fair. Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. I will be giving a talk on Saturday on Raptor Migration.

Oh if only I could join you. Glad the raptors arrived for you all. Beautiful views too.
I wish!
I'd love to hear you speak on raptors, let alone see the birds! What a wonderful event to witness.
