A small group of about 10 birders turned up for the trip to the Batu Gajah ex-mining ponds to see the Pheasant-tailed Jacana and other birds and then on to the Malim N awar area to have a look at the Black-winged Stilts and other waders. The hot blazing sun made the waders wilt by mid-day and so they decided to call it a day.
