Wings over Kuala Kubu Bahru and Selangor International Bird Race 2017

Wings over KKB and Selangor International Bird Race 2017 venue behind Mini Stadium of Kuala Kubu Bahru, Selangor from 21st to 23rd April 2017. This was my second time helping out at the Wild Bird Club Malaysia booth. Azlina Mokhtar, fellow member from WBCM and Majlis Daerah Hulu Selangor (MDHS) had graciously invited WBCM to open booth on Saturday, 22nd April 2017. Birds seen just outside Shahzan Inn, Fraser Hill after 2pm and before closing ceremony of International  Bird Race 2017, were recorded into eBird portal.

Volunteered as a bird guide on Sunday morning earlier for the team from Philippines (Willem, Christine and Ternel). Azlina had kindly arranged for driver who was driving Perodua Alza (Perodua was one of the sponsors for Race).
