A Lesser Fish Eagle takes flight on the lush banks of the Kinabatangan River in Sabah, Borneo. These majestic birds among many more are endangered due to habitat loss. The fragile ecosystem of the ancient rain forest is being cut down for palm oil, which threatens all the inhabitants. BE CONTIOUS about what you buy, read the ingredients. By not supporting the palm oil industry you make a difference in saving forests all around the world!

I feel truly blessed to have visited the river, which provided some amazing sightings and photographic opportunities. Follow me for a photo blog on Borneo coming soon!
