Mugimaki Flycatcher: Sayonara

4th March 2012, Gunung Ulu Kali, Pahang

Local Name: Sambar Mugimaki Scientific Name: Ficedula mugimaki   This male would probably end up being my only Mugimaki flycatcher  since the migrant birds are already flying back North as the  season is drawing to a close.

Local Name: Scientific Name: Trochalopteron peninsulae They are quite a common sight  in our montane and sub montane forest.  It is quite ironic that for a bird bearing a Malaysian tag I’m quite surprised that there isn’t a local name for her, or maybe I’m  not looking in the right places.
