Nat Hab's 2024 Guest Photo Contest

Tailor-bird, Danum Valley, Malaysia
Just Out Of The Nest

Species: Tailor Bird | Location: Danum Valley, Malaysia

As part of our expedition to Borneo in May 2012, we went out on a night walk while in Danum Valley. We were looking for frogs and similar creatures, not birds.

About The Photographer

I am an amateur photographer who has been taking pictures for approximately 50 years. The availability of more time for photography after our children left the nest combined with the arrival of digital photography and the technologic advantages it offered has allowed me to go further with my efforts. Combine that with Nathab travel to exotic places with different wildlife: what an opportunity I have had!
