A Giant Pitta (Hydrornis caeruleus) sighting report of yesterday's afternoon demanded an immediate change of plans which put us on the road again at 4.00 am, on the muddy, slippery, steep trail by 6.00 am, attacked by a mad territorial crested fireback by 6.10 am, on the hidden pitta by 7.00 am and on out in the open posing pitta by 7.06 am.... I have never thought will be able to see this elusive pitta, let alone photograph it, but then Razis Nasri happened. Thank you!!! An experience to last a lifetime. For my non-birder friends, this pitta might not be as colorful and attractive as the ones I kept on posting, but it is so special to see it, as it is very shy! Sort of the holy grail of pittas.

A striking Banded Broadbill (Eurylaimus javanicus) competing for my attention with a giant pitta, a distant rufous-collared kingfisher, a territorial devilish Bornean crested fireback, some courageous Bornean black-capped babblers, the loud whistles and clicks of a white-crowned shama at Razis Nasri's and Muhammadrazali Djali's magnificent Kinabatangan hide. Love these broadbills.
"Please be careful", Razis Nasri warned me as he was suddenly moving between myself and the rope on the slippery trail towards the giant pitta's place. I looked ahead to check the treacherous portion I was supposed to be protected from and not seeing anything dramatically dangerous my confusion grew as without the rope rail the probability of me ending up in the mud face down smashing my camera was rather high. I turned to Razis when my eyes met the most beautiful, colorful Bornean Crested Fireback (Lophura ignita) male walking alongside me a meter or so away. I reached for my camera, while Razis reached for his tripod, blocking my view entirely and whispered, "hurry up the trail" - do not look back. I did though just a second and meeting the menacing look of the firecrest persuaded me that this is no joke. Later, Razis explained he has a hole in his thigh from this beauty. Fortunately the hide was close, so I rushed inside, took my place and with a mistaken sense of safety I started checking the surroundings for new lifers.... just to be warned immediately by fellow birders to keep my eyes, face, camera hood, legs far from the mesh wall, as the border patrol is known to move fast and furious. Going to the toilet for the rest of the day was not an option, not that I would have considered it, since the giant pitta started calling, followed by the black-crowned pitta, Sabah partridges, four more firebacks, a banded broadbill, three lifer babblers and bulbuls ..... while the attacker kept a close devilish eye on any movement coming from the hide.
