Danum Valley, Sabah, Borneo
Danum Valley Birdwatching
As a centre for conservation and ecological research, Danum Valley is one of the best places for bird-watching in Borneo, if not the whole of Malaysia.
It is one of the largest, most untouched regions of lowland rainforest accessible to visitors.
Try to spot a Whiskered Treeswift, one of the most unusual swifts as it sports moustache like white markings on its face and feeds by hunting from a little perch. Threatened species like the Driard’s Trogon – a beautiful red/amber bird – can also be seen on a lucky day. With expert guides available, you can learn about various bird types and seek out particular species that interest you the most.
