Birding Trip to Pantai Jeram

Today I had the opportunity to photograph some waders / shore birds at Pantai Jeram near Kuala Selangor, about 1-hour drive from Kuala Lumpur. I was accompanied by my son, together with my friends Tokki and Faizal.  This is also the first time I used the "kualipod", a custom made ground pod to achieve low angle shots for the waders.
