Galibore - 2012

Brown Fish Owl (Bubo zeylonensis)

Definitely the prize catch of this trip. In fact, I'm planning my next trip there just to get a better shot of this girl. Her nest is right by the resort, where I waited nearly an hour for her to show up, but this is the best I could do.

Common Hawk- Cuckoo (Hierococcyx varius)

We got a live demonstration of why this is called the brainfever bird. It kept its incessant call going through the early morning till I couldn't even think anymore.

Blue-winged Leafbird (Chloropsis cochinchinensis)
