Kinta Valley - Part 1 - Birds

By Idris Talu

There are varieties of birds in Kinta Valley. Watching them flying during the evening really fascinating.

Purple swamphen (porphyrio porphyrio) or known as Panglin by locals. Beautiful birds actually.

Plenty of food is awaiting the birds by the flowing water.

Without the presence of predators,

purple swamphens are freely moving around.

The birds play around and the young ones making noise among them.

Birds searching for food.

One bird stands alone on top of a tree.

A common moorhen

A common moorhen ( Gallinula chloropus) or known to locals as Tiong Air searching for food among the bushes.

A slightly bigger common moorhen

Tiong Air is swimming.
