The GCSM 2014 in Johor Bahru gave me a great opportunity to check out the birds of peninsular Malaysia for a day. I could have probably done better, but diving took priority over the extra week I spent there.
In any case, I met Mr. Wong in Kuala Lumpur and we drove to Genting Highlands and then to Krau forest for some scenic views and interesting birding. It was a hot sultry day, and the birds were difficult to come by, but we tried to get the best of the Broadbills.
