Chek Jawa 23Apr22

From KH

Danny and I went to Chek Jawa again. The surprise find today was a female Scarlet-breasted Flowerpecker which brought happiness to many observers. Alas, I can't get any photos but others got identifiable shots. Apparently, she stayed until 6 May 2022, though not showing everyday.

Nonetheless, I managed to photographed her relative, male Scarlet-backed Flowerpecker.

Black-winged Flycatcher-shrike and male Ruby-cheeked Sunbird were still around from previous days and I managed to photograph them, albeit far.

The trees along the coastline, such as this Earpod Wattle, are a magnet for these rare birds.

Other trees:

There were many Gold-spotted Mudskippers on the mudflat.

I was shooting the Gold-spotted Mudskippers and only realized a Thorny Sea Cucumber hidden in the seagrasses after reviewing the photos.
