Asian Fairy Bluebird

Today in Penang, Malaysia, I had a few hours to go birding at a wonderful place called Penang Hill, high above the city. There are many wonderful creatures in that forest, but none could be more dazzling than this Asian Fairy Bluebird. I watched as he gave a morsel of food to a female, apparently as part of a courtship ritual. She also was wearing turquoise, but in a more subdued shade.
