Maybe you had a parrot once, or a parakeet..? Rest assured that your precious Moe, Sunny or Charlie... or whatever name you chose to give 'him or her'... has a LIVE, HEALTHY and FREE SPIRIT roaming deep within the Bornean Jungle..! Most admittedly, finding a "Jungle Buddy" like BUDDY here, is increasingly less common ~ as many of the native residents with wings are being taken to prop up the pet trade... So if you've lost your budgie, parrot or parakeet, take 'pride in knowing' ~ by not choosing to replace him or her, you are doing us all a favour and keep those 'memories strong' in knowing that somewhere out there ~ their soul continues to fly, free and in the Wild... ;-)

WIth so many 'egrets' within the Nation of Brunei Darussalam, you'd have thought that this bird would bore the pants off most photographer's... yet most often, egrets seem to 'hold the allure' of most as they are just so marvellous to make images of. I've been searching to find a flight pattern that I was happy with and found what I was looking for within the inner reaches of the Brunei countryside, atop of the Labi hillside range ~ at a lake called "Luagan Lalak" Been spending quite some time there over the past few months. A place where surprisingly, I find inner peace. This piece is called "Air Land Transport" as frequently I wonder *where will we be ~ if they keep taking the birds ~ that are so vital for our survival (?)* ...

Banjarmasin motto.

Almost like the helmet adorned by the Japanese Warriors of old ~ the Samurai! This large beetle-looking critter isn't a flying beetle at all but the Worlds largest bee! Usual sizes are up to 35mm. There are some 500 species of 'carpenter bee' in 31 subgenera. The carpenter bee is so called due to it's ability to burrow into dead wood, bamboo, or structural timbers ~ where it carefully carves its nest...

This little eastern crimson sunbird, has been teasing me for weeks around the neighbourhood, finally after much time traipsing around listening to his whistles and following him from tree to tree to try and photograph... finally, finally, I find out where he resides to preen himself and at what time...! The best capture I could manage given the location, lighting and limit in technology. I've just sold my better camera and await the arrival of another... We all know a good workman ~ should never blame his tools, and in this instance the tech hasn't let me down as much as the sensor and limited focal length restricts. Still as an art photograph and of such a 'flighty little blighter' ~ I'm reasonably happy with the results..! :-) ...

The Bornean orangutan is a species of orangutan endemic to the island of Borneo. Together with the Sumatran orangutan and Tapanuli orangutan, it belongs to the only genus of great apes native to Asia.

Another image just sat on my hard-drive gathering dust doing very little until prompted to post... I captured this quite some years ago... I was sat in my backyard overlooking into the thicket of jungle scrub ~ whilst on the Island of Borneo, in Brunei. It had been raining quite heavily the night before... It was hot, say 34 degrees C and quite humid but fresh... I watched as this Coucal, was enjoying a spot of sun bathing - drying out its wings and feathers after the nights heavy deluge. He didn't move, he just stayed there - so I went to grab my camera. I didn't have full frame at that time and so I guess it was taken with a hybrid Camera system, a Sony Powershot HX400V ~ but I am not sure... (?) A friend of a friend on fa...

This is the best image I could garner from extreme distance. This mature male "Rhinoceros Hornbill" sat on the very outskirts of the Jungle interior as I watched the sunrise...

Literally with less than 5 seconds to take this shot ~ it was a question of 'lightning fast reactions' and 'extreme telephoto ability' to be able to grab this image. Reeled off 4 images, after that "Woody the Woodpecker" had gone ~ vanished into the canopy... Decided rather than ditching the image, as for sure they weren't the best; that I'd work with the better image to try tease out, a *'real live' red-headed "Woody the Woodpecker" from the Jungles of Borneo ~ "what a character"!* Hope you like him! :D

Hornbill

A Gorgonian sea-fan sits within the protective boundary of the wreck ~ just enough shelter from the strong currents sweeping across the deck ~ yet enough flow for these corals to filter feed on food particles passing by in the water column. These calcareous corals are very fragile but if left untouched can grow to substantial size. They are susceptible to damage by divers and silting.

DigitalArt "Mandau Sakti" themed around animal head skulls and traditional weapons from the Dayak Tribe of Borneo, Indonesia. "Mandau" is the traditional weapon of the Dayak people of Borneo.It is also known as Parang Ilang among the Bidayuh, Iban and Penan people, Malat by the Kayan people or Baieng by the Kenyah people or Bandau by Lun Bawang or Pelepet/Felepet by Lundayeh. Mandau is mostly ceremonial. However, a less elaborate version called Ambang is used as an everyday practical tool.

Take me to a place where whispers are no more. To a jungle where the heart is pure. No ill feeling, no ill thought, and I will find thee. Be it a bird, or a bee. Tranquility is with me. Not yonder, as I ponder. Call it 'chi' or photographer's 'zen', call it what you will. A state most often upon us whilst in perfect calm. Focus is on image and nothing else seems to matter. No storm in a tea-cup, not even the gentle stir of jasmine in the pot... Maybe there, maybe then - you will find a purple heart.

The security bars of our windows ~ serve good purpose for this Eastern Crimson Sunbird as he sits on his "Crimson Throne". Many different species of sunbird frequent the 'one way' smoked glass windows surrounding the house ~ offering good photographic opportunity.

Just as the light breaks ~ a little "eastern crimson sunbird" sits on his early morning perch using 'the branch' to wipe his beak - after his insect breakfast.

A portrait shot of the Red Bearded Bee Eater (Nyctyornis amictus). Just been reminded that my Great Grandfather, Edgar Coburn, besides being a lithographic print master used to specialise in Bird illustrations. "Kinda weird how the genealogy has continued"...

The wrinkled hornbill or Sunda wrinkled hornbill (Rhabdotorrhinus corrugatus) is a medium-large hornbill which is found in forest in the Thai-Malay Peninsula, Sumatra and Borneo. The male and female have different head and bill patterns. Males have bright yellow feathers on the auriculars, cheeks, throat, neck-sides and chest, but these areas are black in the female, except for the blue throat. The bill of the male is yellow with a red base and casque, and a brownish basal half of the lower mandible. The bill and casque of the female is almost entirely yellow. (Source: Wikipeida)
