231/SG126. Japanese Paradise Flycatcher, Sungei Buloh Wetlands Reserve

 

The male is a beautiful uncommon visitor but the female isn't all that bad as well! the japanese paradise FC has a distinctive inverted U-shape on its underbody.

Thank you @Galana @PeterHG @xelas. The male fruit dove is such a tough one to see as it's really shy. And when I saw it for the first time a couple of years ago, i was so surprised it was smaller than I had expected.
