Introduction

It is a treasure house of some of the most varied fauna and flora, both terrestrial and marine, on the planet. Its rainforest is inhabited by tigers, leopards, elephants, sambar-deer, sun-bears, tapir, rhino and many other wonderful mammals.

It reverberates with the whooping call of the gibbons and the strange cries of the hornbills, the pheasants, the barbets and the babblers. Within this biosphere lie the states of Penang, Perak, Kedah and Trengganu. Collectively it offers vast expanses of untouched rainforest, golden beaches, secluded coral islands and the wonderful living creatures that inhabit them.

The northern peninsula offers a diverse range of habitat types,  including lowland-, montane and mangrove forests, mudflats, pristine beaches, scrubland, rocky-island outcrops and even some of the best diving in the region.

Of the 18 Important Bird Areas in Peninsular Malaysia 9 are to found within the boundaries of these four states.  In all, there are some 640 species of resident avifauna, including 120 common migrant, birds to be found in Peninsular Malaysia.

A great proportion of the endemic birds of Malaysia are restricted to the highlands, Such as Frasers Hill, or Maxwell Hill. A smaller number of endemic also found in lowland forest. Particularly virgin lowland forests are important centres for endemic birds.

With so much on offer this area must surely excite and fulfill any nature traveller’s holiday.  we will try to record all birds spotted and publish pictures whenever possible.
