BLUE NUTHATCH

Place: Hemnant Trail, Frasers Hill
Date: 13 May 2018


On my last day of this trip I managed to photograph this Blue Nuthatch. The last time I managed to photograph this species was a few years back in the Cameron Highlands. Firstly, I have to apologise as the photos were heavily cropped and noisy as the light was bad. The bird was very tiny and about 60 feet up the trunk of a tree, and with my Sigma 150-500mm zoom lens on my 5D3 the images I got were like a dot. I think its size is no more than 9cm. It was crawling up and down the trunk very fast looking for insects. It belongs to tree crawlers family.
