Birdwatching - Afternoon Session ~ valid till 31st December 2011
(rates based on per person per package)

We begin this session in the afternoon, a short drive to a local village pond that is frequented by the Lesser Whistling-ducks, Little egrets, Little herons, Moorhens, Little grebes, Chinese pond herons, Needle-tailed swifts, Striated swallow and many others.

If you have seen the courting dance of the hornbills, you’ll realize that it is literally poetry in motion. There are much fruit-passing and beak-rubbing as the male birds compete against each other to woo female’s heart. Once successful the couple stays together for life.

Langkawi is home to Wreathed Hornbill, Oriental-pied hornbill and the most majestic of them all Great Hornbill, which can grow up to 1.2 meter. In this afternoon session we will visit these jewels of Langkawi’s home.

By late evening we make our way back to hotel.
