The Rinra was on a waterway with some ponds behind it. We could see egrets and terns from our eighth-floor balcony. On our last morning, after breakfast, we brought our birding gear down to the third-floor outdoor seating area. We saw more birds in 15 minutes than we had on our entire birding trip the previous day.
Mike was particularly interested in the Javan Pond Heron, which looks similar to the pond herons we saw in India. Chris spotted two rails and then noticed some birds in a tree right next to us, a little below eye level, where we saw a bulbul and a Pale-headed Munia.
