Barbet and Woodpecker of Fraser Hill

Fire-tufted Barbet and Lesser Yellownape. We saw the Yellownape at Hemmant's Trail that Sunday afternoon. We had checked out of Puncak Inn by 1.15pm. Lunch was at the Warung along Jalan Lurah, Fraser Hill, near the Paddocks. The lady owner is from Kedah and her asam laksa and rojak buah tastes fantastic when eaten at 900m above sea level:) Our Sunday birdwatching sessions continued at Hemmant's Trail and Bishop's Trail later that afternoon.


Little Cuckoo Dove along Mager Road on Sunday morning. Mountain Imperial Pigeon was "hiding" from us that weekend:) Mountain Bulbul, Mountain Fulvetta, White-throated Fantail and Streaked Spiderhunter were seen at the Telekom Loop, that Sunday mid-morning. We continued birding here after having our morning breakfast at Puncak Inn. The Brown Wood Owl near Seri Berkat was sighted by 6.30am that Sunday morning. We missed seeing this owl the night before.

  1. Puncak Inn has undergone extensive renovation. MATTA Fair room rates at RM95 for single room and RM115 for double bed room are pretty good deals for me. Fraser Hill Development Corporation manages this Inn. Website at http://pkbf.gov.my publishes the room rates of Puncak Inn and Apartments.
