Indonesia Trip 2017 Day 8
Indonesia Trip Day 8 – Saturday 29th July 2017
Sulawesi with Mike Nelson from Bird Tour Asia.
The first part of our 6-week Indonesian trip was birding the island of Sulawesi.
On the morning of Saturday 29th July, we left Sendy Guesthouse at 5.00 am to bird Lore Lindu National Park again. We birded until 11.30 am and went back to the guest house for lunch and a rest during the heat of the day. We were meant to go out again at 3.30 pm but couldn’t go out because of a torrential downpour until 4.30 pm.
We stayed out to see Great-eared Nightjar and go back at 6.00 pm.
The best birds of the day were Sulawesi and Spot-tailed Goshawk, Maroon-Backed Whistler, Scaly-Kingfisher and Crimson-crowned Flowerpecker.

This is my story; a journey defined by my love for these extraordinary creatures. Because large or small, brown, patterned or jewelled, there is something about birds that makes us, even for just moments at a time, lift our eyes away from our lives and up to the skies.
