Thinking it will be a long weekend and with the coming of Depavali celebration, birding was the first thing in my mind. However it rain, rain, rain from Sunday until morning Monday.
It was really a gloomy day but on the Monday noon time, called Karim aka sinooorita and found out that he was already at the Penampang road side where we spoted the Phalarope and Ruff. Again this time it was the Pranticole. They were 4 birds at the road side, approximately about 100 meters from the roadside.
Tried to take some digiscoping but the rain was in the way, only managed a sorry picture but at least it was recorded of its presence.

Late updating, few trips with Jason and CK. We had a good sight of the Whitehead Spider Hunter. They took pictures (digiscoping). Have not seen it yet.
