It took us a return trip of about 264 km (164 miles) and five hours of continuous searching in the disturbed forest, this loving couple was finally found.
Description: Cryptic, uncommon nightbird of lowland and lower foothill forests (to 800 meters). Males show extensive barring on wings, whitish lower belly, and irregular white blotches on the breast. Females are warmer brown, almost rufous, with less wing barring and a wide “necklace” of white blotches on the breast.
Calls: There are sexual variation in calls between sex; male gives a series of rippling clear whistles and both sexes give harsh nasal croaks.

The title is the Malaysia slogan which loosely translated means "Malaysia Can Do It!" How this slogan came to be the "battle cry" of a nation is largely unknown. Taken at a carpark next to Dataran Pahlawan Melaka Megamall. Pic taken during my trip to Malacca in Malaysia from 28th - 30th Aug 2009.
