Testing My 20 Sounds in One Sound Medley

2010-11-18T22:18:00.000-08:00

I was so tempted to test this beautiful idea of putting 20 or more sounds into one thumb drive.After a very hard thinking I decided to perform the cut and paste. What I did was to compile all the good sounds that are in my collection and select about 3 minutes of the best part. Then arrange in a sequence so that the sound will be continuous and attractive.Today tested the sound at Kepong KIP BH.

This week the tides are still not much good for photography - 2.1 and 2.2m all week, but, ever the optimist, I went to see what I could see today. I was also keen to see how the Malaysian Plovers' moult was progressing.As expected, it was difficult to get close to the birds, but I was able to take some distant shots and do a count. On the construction site, new blue-painted pegs have appeared

We can be very quot green quot

2010-10-04T06:13:00.000-07:00

We can be very green!Our true colour is green, green, green!Swiftlet ranching can be very environmental-friendly and mother-earth loving.In my eyes, I see the beauty and the genuine efforts of our green peace-loving fellow ranchers.Nothing is perfect under the hot sun, I do not deny that some of us have created a mess to the public, however, honestly I still believe that most of us have done our

Kapar Ashponds, Selangor

2010-08-29T23:50:00.000-07:00

A family visit to KL allowed me a chance to visit Kapar on a couple of afternoons when the tides were good.On the 28th I was accompanied by Ooi Chin Hock. The sky was quite overcast and the birds flighty, so photography was a challenge.One of the very first birds we saw was a male White-faced Plover. During the 1990s I and several other observers recorded 'Malaysian Plovers' at Kapar. In

Rainforest Discovery Centre, Sepilok, Sabah

2010-08-29T12:50:00.000-07:00

After three days of workshops in Sandakan, it was a nice change to get some fresh air at the Rainforest Discovery Centre (RDC), Sepilok, which is just a half hour drive west of the town.I stayed at Sepilok B & B, which was reasonably priced, clean, and more importantly, just a couple of minutes' walk from RDC.At RDC I made a bee-line for the Bristlehead Tower and canopy walkway, with high

23rd December 2009:Olhos De Agua and the Alvor Estuary, Algarve, Portugal

2010-08-28T07:45:00.000-07:00

A rare moment of blue skies! By migrating south to Portugal, we found we had exhanged snow for rain. Only two days out of eight were rainfree during our short visit.Lesser Black-backed Gull. This was a family holiday rather than a birding trip, so most of my pics were taken near where we were staying, in Olhos De Agua, just outside Albufeira.A selection of Mediterranean Gulls. 'Med Gulls' were at

I remembered a couple of months ago I met him in Kuching and suddently realised that he was my school mate at Ibrahim Secondary School in SP Kedah."Hei Dato, I think we were in the same school and I know you were prefects in the same year when we were in form six."Oh yes Harry I remember you. You used to tackle those Chinese girls?"Dato I married one."I gave him the contact number of a swiftlet

I was trying to blog, but when every time I was about to start, my mind went blank with words I want to write and so, it ended up I'd do something else to keep myself occupied and my blog abandoned. It has been a week since I last blogged and that isn't too bad though...With year of the tiger approaching, Chinese New Year is just two more weeks away. I've got myself busy with sewing some new

Wednesday 28th December

2010-08-28T05:30:00.000-07:00

With the disappointing run of poor tides continuing this week, I decided to venture over the bridge for the first time in months to take a look at 'The Far Side'! It rained constantly for the first couple of hours, and with the tide dropping from a pre-dawn 2.1m, I didn't have high hopes of seeing much. Nevertheless I started off at Bagan Belat, which is more or less opposite my patch at Tanjung

Nicotine Tained Nest !!!

2010-08-24T18:40:00.000-07:00

I was in an old BH with only one miserable nest after a period of 2 years in operation.Since the house cost the owner 300,000 and produced only one nest, I told him to look at the good side of the coin. He at least got one very expensive nest (RM300,000 plus 2 years interest). I suggested to him to carefully harvest it and frame in a see thru glass. He might want to hang it in his bedroom????The

During Breeding Season

2010-08-24T18:05:00.000-07:00

Hey guys have you all been doing some observation on the number of birds above your rooftop or near the entrance hole of your or your neighbor's BHs?These few weeks there are a huge crowd and to me this is due to a new batch of young birds coming out of their nests and soon the breeding season will begins. Yes once all those young birds are out their mothers will be bitchy and starts to wanting

The Happy Hours Corner In Subang 2 BH

2010-08-24T16:42:00.000-07:00

This was how it looks like in Subang 2 BH.I discovered the Happy Hours Corner idea about a few weeks back and now applying the technique in one of the BH that I was given the task to revamp.This Subang2 BH was constructed about 2 years back but was put on "Hold" by the owner.Recently he decided to put the house into operation mode but was unsure if the house was ready.He called for my opinion and

Why Swiftlet Loves To Build Their Nests

2010-08-24T15:02:00.000-07:00

I love to analyse things that I observed in all the BHs that I visited.Everything that we installed in our BH have some good reasons.All those happenings that we observed after we started our new BH must have very good reasons for them to happen.One of the most common observation will be "Why our tenants loves to build their new nests at 90* corners?"Why don't they choose those flat areas? Isn't

The Red Nests Saga !!!

Please remember to read an article written is the Star newspaper today. (If you have not please see the attached article at the bottom of this article).Just read the article and try not to make any conclusion yet. If I were you get a proper person who are more knowledgeable or exposed to the red nest industry.I got some photos to show you that there are such thing as Red Nests produced by

Some Take The Water More Seriously Then Others !!!

2010-08-23T06:06:00.000-07:00

I remember writing an article on the importance of water or floor wetness in your BH.It seem that the more the floor areas are wet the more the birds will be inside your BH.It might be the high humidity or perhaps those wetness helps to soak those bird shits on the floor and helps to decompose them. During the decomposition the sludge will be smellier and well liked by those

Another seven more days to go and we are fifty three. Fifty three years of independence. I've just bought myself a Malaysian flag and a Sarawak state flag each for fifty cents, patriotism! But not for my car of course. It will be used to teach the 4 yos our Malaysian flag and our Malaysian flag is called Jalur Gemilang. Have you put your flags up yet?The Doreamon is one of the Japanese most

2010-08-20T05:17:00.001-07:00

I was back at the roost site in good time for the high tide today, but, to cut a long story short, the waders didn't show up! That was interesting, because it means that yesterday they roosted on the bund simply because they had to - they'd flown there expecting the fishpond to be available, and when it wasn't, they'd been forced to use the bund. However, given the choice, I know they'd prefer a

Sabah Can Be A Swiftlet Farming Heaven!!!

2010-08-19T19:02:00.000-07:00

I was not surprised with the birdcall tests results conducted in Kudat and Tuaran, Sabah.At both locations the responds was pretty good and passed my minimum bird count.Yesterday morning I started my morning trip at about 5.00am and finished my day at 12 mid night.Early in the morning went to two pieces of lands closed to the tip of Borneo. One on the steep hillside and the other was at a

2010-08-19T08:01:00.001-07:00

Today I went back to the place where I discovered the wader roost on August 11th, this time armed with an assurance from the guard that he would let me in.My excitement at the prospect of seeing the fishpond full of waders at close quarters received a severe blow when I arrived,to find a fishpond full of water! The heavy rains of the night before had filled it to a depth of one or two feet - too
