This is our first pelagic trip this year. We had the usual seabirds:

1. Bridled Tern 3
2. Lesser Crested Tern 1
3. Little Tern 3
4. Black-naped Tern 1
5. Swinhoe's Storm-petrel 1 group of 4 sitting on the sea

Today, we did something different, we disembarked on Pulau Hantu. Sure enough, a pair of Mangrove Whistlers were at the "summit".

So was a Great-billed Heron at the breakwater.

Next, we headed to Pulau Salu for the Pied Imperial Pigeons. Sure enough, three were seen fluttering at the tree top.

Jia Sheng saw a sea turtle, as well as some Ocean Sunfish!
