Pasir Ris Park 28Feb26

From KH

Danny and I went to Pasir Ris Park today.

A Himalayan Cuckoo was first reported here on 19 Feb. Glad that it was still around after more than a week.


Here, eating an Asian Weaver Ant queen.


Poor cuckoo was shouted at not only by the locals, like these Swinhoe's White-eyes, and sunbirds.


But also migrants like this Yellow-browed Warbler, and also Asian Brown Flycatcher!



Also around was an adult Hodgson's Hawk-Cuckoo. Similarly, it was shouted at by white-eyes and Scarlet-backed Flowerpecker.


All these happening in the vicinity of the Crested Goshawk nest in a Rain Tree.


OHB also seen in the vicinity.


Another cuckoo, a Square-tailed Drongo-Cuckoo, was having a more peaceful time.


Female Brown-throated Sunbird was too busy sipping nectar from these pink flowers.


Female Ornate Sunbird was also busy sipping nectar from these light pink flowers.


The Oriental Pied-Hornbill couple was also too busy preening themselves.
