Beautiful island..i life in Borneo Kalimantan Indonesia

[@alanuae]

Some great bird sightings. Interesting to see the same places I visited and some I missed. Thanks.

[@scottdeselle389]

Very inspiring. I’m headed to Sabah in two weeks.

[@alanadare7052]

Have a great time Scott. How could you not? 😀

[@glenngilbert7389]

Apart from referring to a civet as a cat, this was a well-edited and well-paced video. A lovely insight into the unique wildlife of this superb region of the world

[@alanadare7052]

Thanks. Yes, strictly speaking that was a loose way to refer to a Civet. Thanks for pointing it out.

[@Birdalottours3855]

Thankyou...a truly enjoyable watch. Putting Borneo on my bucket list for birds for sure...Didn't realise how many Toucans, Barbets etc could be found there 😊

[@alanadare7052]

Thanks . It's a fantastic place for birds. No Toucans though. Probably Hornbills were what you meant as both families have such huge beaks and get confused.

[@Birdalottours3855]

@@alanadare7052 oh yes of COURSE ha ha...whoops, i meant Hornbills..😄

[@QRPhil]

Lovely video and very well produced. It was a pleasure to travel with you both.

[@alanadare7052]

Thanks Phil. Likewise. Some of your photos were brilliant.

Ised to study in New Zealand for few months in early 1980s..I think NZ is very relax n amazing place to do birding. Have visited Melbourne n Sydney..but hoping (while still around)to visit Northern Territory n Tasmania!!

[@lancemumby840]

Great video, so much to see / regards / Lance

[@naturephotographychallenge]

Quite an amazing place & the birding trip you did looked very interesting! So many brilliant birds and animals!! I think once we get to all the places we want to bird around Australia, Borneo will be high on the list to visit!! Thanks for the video! ~ K & N

[@TanyaScharaschkin]

Lovely memories. In awe of your editing... it couldn't have been easy deciding what to show! Thank you for including my artwork and "in action" shot!

[@alanadare7052]

A great pleasure Tanya.

[@alibenkahn5092]

Fabulous video as usual 😍. Thanks!

[@insecta75]

Amazing video❤

[@RJNumbat]

Alana and Greg, am in awe of your trip. Your wildlife video and photos are fabulous along with commentary to get a flavour of the wildlife seen, places visited and general travel. I happened to notice at 31.10 the overlaying Blue-eared Kingfisher for a bee-eater, possibly a Blue-Throated Bee-eater (Iooked it up). Inspiring stuff to get out more and see the wonders of the natural world ! Cheers, Richard

[@alanadare7052]

Thanks RJ. Yes, Greg meant to put in BT Bee-eater. I didn't pick it up either. Well spotted.

[@terrylynch1259]

Amazing!....

[@adnanbinabdullah9615]

Beautiful guys! Used to work in Sabah for few year in 1990s.now pensioned n back to Kedah.northern Peninsular Malaysia{P..M.) Try to do birding in CAMERON Highlands in P.M. and Sarawak state. National Park in P.M. in much better!

[@alanadare7052]

We'll keep that in mind. Thanks.

[@markshen3280]

The Javan Finches are one of the many popular pet birds in Japan.🇯🇵 Many of these birds are exported to other countries as pet trades.

[@alanadare7052]

Yes, I'm afraid so.

[@christinaczarnecki625]

so many beautiful birds !!! any leeches in the rainforest ?

[@Rubeena.T]

I did visit many Bornean forests in Sabah and there were many leeches in the forest haha. But it was not too bad. I had some crawl up on my hair as well haha.

[@alanadare7052]

Greg got one on the stomach!

[@markshen3280]

Singapore also has several species of sunbirds, particularly the Olive-backed Sunbird. However, Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR only has one single species of sunbird, and that is the Seallowtail Sunbird. Its favourite flower nectar is from the Baihinia Flowering Tree which blooms in the spring.

[@jovinc2002]

awesome! 31.09 should be blue throated bee-eater instead of kingfisher.

[@colinfwalters]

Looks like a great trip. Did your guide use bird call?

[@alanadare7052]

He did for the Pitta on the track and tried for some other rare species but mostly they were just spotted. Easy enough with Hornbills!

[@Sonya-k2b]

Can you tell me how I can book a tour like this
