Common Green Magpie

Common Green Magpie

Common Green Magpie is an incredibly beautiful bird. It was early morning when I popped out of the hotel in the centre of Fraser’s Hill in Malaysia. It was a surprise to see this bird therefore in the main square. It was reasonably tame and came close which gave a great opportunity for photographs. The habitat of Common Green Magpie is broad leaved forest of which there is an abundance in the Fraser’s Hill area.
