    Dear Doctor Seow,

    Using your ID features, would the following observation be Actornis hipparia? This is shot by user Kleared on inaturalist
    inat link - https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/148450319

    This mating pair have wing fringes narrowly brownish and their legs seems to be faintly spotted, which is why i ID it as such, but i would like to hear your opinion on this observation

    Secondly, is this following observation actornis rutila? Seems distinct with the yellow and brown patches overall

    Just too difficult.
    The wings have strong grey triangles on the dustal margins not seen in A. hipparia.
    A. rhopica appear to be the nearest.

    Probable A. poecilonipha for comparison.

    The 2nd should be correct as A. rutila.



    TL Seow: Cheers.
