Tropical Bird Watching Basics & Birding Tips
I prefer to sit quietly and wait
for whatever turns up at a fruiting tree or a
flowering shrub. In the heat of the day, a shallow
forest stream can be a good spot for the feathered
denizens to come out for a nice birdbath.
In a "bird
rich" area with lots of birdcalls, the slow patrolling
mode with quiet pauses can be very productive. Just
relax, just soak in all the birdcalls and become one
with the whole environment. Happy Birding.

Changeable Hawk Eagles
The distinctive shrill calls from a pair
of Changeable Hawk Eagles or spizatus cirrhatus can be
frequently heard amidst the dense trees at Mount Faber.
It is one of my favorite birding spots. It's
got heaps of bird life packed into a small accessible
area and best of all; it's just a stone throw from
where I work.
