Yellow-vented Bulbul

Yellow-vented Bulbul

I was lucky to be able to go to Borneo at fairly short notice in October 2011. I arrived in the capital of Sabah, Kota Kinabalu, in the early afternoon after a long flight from the UK to Kuala Lumpur followed by a short onward connection to Borneo. There were some quiet tree-lined roads around the hotel where I saw the first of many Yellow-vented Bulbuls, a common species of towns and gardens in Borneo.
