One of the birds in Brunei that I always wanted to get on camera is the asian paradise flycatcher. Occasionally these birds are seen in the forests surrounding Labi road and Teraja. Last weekend, during a morning trip to Teraja, we encountered a loud and active male. It flew around us for several minutes - seeing it was one, getting a picture proved a different matter.

I finally did get a couple of shots that nicely illustrate how the species got its name. No mistaking this bird, what a splendid little fellow!

Folkert, wat een mooie vogel. Ik kan me voorstellen, dat je die heel graag voor je lens wilde hebben.

I am with you on the difficulty of getting a nice photo of this beauty, Folkert.
