Hide Birding Rules! Part 1...

It took most of the morning to find the tricky Grey-bellied Wren-Babbler, but we scored big-time with some great views. We walked up the mountain for a few kilometres in search of this bird and Cachar Babbler but didn’t really get a sniff of this bird, however we did see Great BarbetOrange-bellied LeafbirdWhite-bellied ErpornisGrey-chinned MinivetMaroon OrioleFire-tailed Sunbird, and we had a flock of Yellow-throated Fulvettas.

In the afternoon we visited another feeding station where amongst the 37 species seen, new birds included Spot-throated BabblerLong-tailed SibiaGrey-throated BabblerRed-tailed and Blue-winged MinlaLong-tailed Thrush, a pair of Chestnut-bellied Rock-Thrush, 2 Maroon-backed AccentorsBlack-throated Sunbird, and also a Davison’s Leaf Warbler
