Nollie and I arrived a day earlier in Makassar so we took the opportunity to visit Fort Rotterdam from VOC times.
After arrival of the group we visited fish ponds near Makassar, good for waders and terns and other birds of open areas.
In the Karaenta Forest near Makassar. Anticlockwise: Angélique, Mieke, Nollie, Wim, Monal, Frans, Elly, Pieter, Laurens. In this forest we were especially keen to see Black-ringed White-eye (only occurs on South Sulawesi) and the recently discovered Sulawesi Streaked Flycatcher. We saw both.
Now in Lore Lindu national park Good birding from the quiet road.
The always good-humoured Monal (right) giving instructions during a coffee break. Sitting from left to right: Wimmel, Angelique, Agnes, Mieke, Nollie.
Typical countryside house in the Lore Lindu area.
A fruiting tree in Lore Lindu NP with Knobbed Hornbill, a Sulawesi endemic.
Lore Lindu is a massive forest area.
We also birded some open fields nearby. Photo Agnes Coenen.
Churches are a common sight on Sulawesi.
The Mama Sendy guesthouse of our stay in the Lore Lindu area.
Our hotel at the border of Manado in the northeast tip of Sulawesi. Nice birds in the gardens.
Our first views of the Tangkoko area. Gunung (mountain) Tangkoko in the background.
Tangkoko is famous for its kingfishers, both the forest species and the ones in the mangroves. We are heading here for the latter. From left to right: John, Nollie, Pieter, Laurens and the boatsman. Photo Agnes Coenen.
Mangroves near Tangkoko.
The largest of the many kingfisher species of Tangkoko is in this mangrove. Great-billed Kingfisher, a Sulawesi endemic.
Forest on the slopes of Gunung Tangkoko.
Foothill forest of Gunung Tangkoko. Scoped from the small road (photo below; Monal front right after Wim). Lookouts like this are good for spotting pigeons.
A second visit to the mangroves. First boat: guide Anis (left), Wim, Mieke. Second boat: Agnes, Angelique, Wimmel, Monal and their boatsman.
More scoping over the Tangkoko foothill forest. Our local bus driver (left) will warn us for traffic but gladly there is hardly traffic on this road.
Typical street-side view in northern Sulawesi. Drying seeds, probably mostly cloves (kruidnagel). It was cloves which made the Dutch in VOC times coming here.
Maleo, a megapode endemic to Sulawesi. They bury their eggs in the sand which is heated by geothermal activity. We were priviliged to see them so close from a hide. Okay, after a long wait (they are very shy), but absolutely worthwhile.
Agnes and Laurens' turn to be brought to the other river bank, for our visit to the Bogani Nani Wartabone national park.
Along the road back to Kotamobagu town.
Gunung Ambang area east of Kotamobagu.
Near Tomohon, where we had our succesful search for Scaly-breasted Kingfisher at Gunung Mahawu. Our last day on Sulawesi. We flew from Manado to Ternate, the volcanic island in front of Halmahera.
Scaly-breasted Kingfisher, one of the highlights of the trip. Not garantueed, and it would be a pity to miss this beautiful but elusive forest kingfisher after seeing so many other kingfisher species.
Departure by speedboat from Ternate to Sofifi on Halmahera.
Now on Halmahera, near the Weda resort.
The porch of our private bungalow at Weda resort. Not bad!
Soon we found the star bird of the trip, the Wallace's Standardwing Bird-of-Paradise. More pics are in the bird photo page.
Birding the forests near the Weda resort.
View from the Weda resort.
Traditional hunter.
At the start of a small trail into the dense forest. But also birding along these sand roads near Weda resort was very rewarding.
On our way back from Weda to Sofifi and beyond we witnessed a local celebration of the National Day (three days in advance, on Sunday).
View on Ternate vulcano from Halmahera while driving north to the Moluccan megapode site.
Crossing, in the evening, the lagoon to the broad sandbar where the megapodes lay their eggs.
Moluccan Scrubfowl, another megapode of this trip. Look at the enormous feet needed to make holes in the sand for laying their eggs. In contrast to the Maleo it is probably not geothermal activity which hatches the eggs, but the heating of the black vulcanic beach sand by the sun.
I have adjusted the taxonomy and bird names as much as possible to the new field guide Birds of the Indonesian Archipelago, which appeared after our trip. Often the old name is before the '/' and the new name behind it. Note the many recent splits.
