About this excursion

Start before first light on the forest edge above Meemure and work the ridge trails as the canopy wakes up. We target Sri Lanka's endemic highland birds — whistling thrush, yellow-eared bulbul and the elusive scaly thrush — with scopes set up at three reliable clearings. The pace is gentle, the stops are frequent, and every sighting is logged for the national bird atlas.

    Nimal found us eleven endemics before breakfast. Faultless.
