Hi Again! I have started a new mission The Diversity of Cambodia:
http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1135...
and would love if you could post your wild Cambodia spottings there. Thanks for sharing! It doesn't matter if they are from several years ago, it will give more depth to the mission if it has some properly dated older spottings!

Hi, thanks for that info. Was definitely September. If you do find out I would be interested to hear.
We are not currently in Cambodia, but lived there for a year and a half. We would love to go back, but with a 1 year old things are a bit busy!
There is so so much wildlife there, you don't go anywhere with out a camera!

Yes, I think it looks like an immature male just getting its adult plumage. I see that your photo is taken in Sept and I am not sure yet it that is the right timing for an immature Magpie Robin to be at this stage. If I find out more, I will let you know! Are you still in Cambodia?
