Birdwatching in different habitats: Sekinchan & environs (Selangor Branch)

Birdwatching in different habitats: Sekinchan & environs (Selangor Branch)
Like us, different birds prefer to live in different locations. Starting the morning in the mangroves near Jeram, where the Chestnut-winged Cuckoo and Mangrove Whistler may be found, we will then proceed to the paddyfields near Sekinchan in the hopes of spotting waders and with some luck, Marsh Harriers.

Please ensure you bring your binoculars, a hat, sunblock and plenty of drinking water. Mosquito repellent may be a good idea too. We also suggest bringing snacks to keep you going throughout the morning. Lunch will be on your own account.

The trip finishes at lunchtime, but you might like to visit Kuala Selangor Nature Park for some more birding before heading home.
The meeting place is at the end of Jalan Pantai Jeram (map can be emailed upon request).
Time: 7.15am.
We encourage you to be environmentally friendly and CARPOOL. If you need a ride, or have space in your car and are willing to carpool, please send your email or SMS Jasmine.
