I spotted this Blue Nuthatch jumping along a tree trunk and I had almost mistaken it for a Woodpecker.
The 1st photograph is not very clear, my apology. But, what is interesting about this bird is it can run down a tree trunk head first (photograph 2 below).
Very restless and jumping without stopping and ...jumps away from my gaze too.

Purple Swamphen with chick

White Bellied Sea Eagle
Stumbled upon this aerial fight between a juves White Bellied Sea Eagle and the annoying crows on my way back from Bidor, Perak. This poor bird was being pursued by the crows relentlessly in mid air and at his nest.
This White Bellied Sea Eagle is the largest birds of prey on South East Asia and is active during the day.Here is a closer photograph of him dangling on some wires, I supposed his is practising his in-flight hunting skills.
Here is the handsome adult bird sitting on a steal pipe of the communication tower.

Cattle Egret
A Cattle Egret riding on a buffalo's back. They are always loitering around herds of cow or buffalo by picking out preys disturbed by the grazing animal. A very successful strategy called commensalism for the Cattle Egret.
