Fraser's Hill August 2010

Sharing two shots of this BF that caused 7 men to go nuts running all over the hill for a good shot...... while the two wives were shooting the breeze and laughing at us from the upper deck of the hill.:)

Note the two varieties of Lantana. Hopefully Inche Zaini's cuttings of the variety at the lower pic will survive , if not we will have to send Anthony ( by bus ) up Fraser's Hill to collect more!!:bsmile:

Wow! Beautiful shot, Sunny!:thumbsup:
#2 is good... #1 slightly over sharpened.

Cheers! :cheers:

Did anyone put together a trip list of the butterflies seen? I would enjoy looking through this especially now since my C&P4 has arrived.

Also, I am curious about the Forest Quaker. The background appears to be well lit. Did you find it in an open area? I saw a couple but these were along the Kindersley Trail.

David ,

Normally they are found in the deep shade . It is rather rare to find them in the open, but we found a few feeding on tiny flowers at an open barbecue area along the track on Jerai Waterfalls. :)

After going up and down the road to Jerai twice, I could not imagining going there from town without wheels!!!:sweat:

Khew normally keep a checklist for the more often visited butterfly hot spots.

Cheers!
