Jambu Fruit Dove
Spotted in mangrove of Sepilok Laut.
Lesser Adjutant
Seen in Lok Kawi Wildlife Park. A bird with bald head, haha..
Lesser Coucal
This is one of the best known birds for village people. They think Lesser Coucal has the formula to heal broken bone, so they would purposely break the bone of its chick. The parent will bring back the herb to heal the chick.
Little Cuckoo-Dove
Spotted in hill forest of Tambunan. This dove was taking a nap after heavy meal of fruits.

The commonest spiderhunter species, but I am always confused them with sunbirds.
Long-tailed Parakeet
A agricultural pest as they feed on fruits and seeds. A bit surprise to see one in Tanjung Aru Beach.
