A colour photograph of sunrise from the summit of Mount Kinabalu, the highest peak in Southeast Asia, located on the island of Borneo in the Malaysian state of Sabah, looking down the mountain to the land below. The early morning sun's rays cast a triangular shadow from the mountain onto atmospheric mist.

A couple of skulking endemics from my recent trip to #MountKinabalu. Mountain Wren-babbler (left) is typically found in small, noisy groups marauding close to the forest floor, whilst Bornean Stubtail (right) has a thin, very high-pitched call that I was amazed my ageing ears could still pick up 😅
Our last day on #MountKinabalu saw us trying to track down some missing endemics. Recent reports of a Fruithunter seen around Timphon Gate encouraged us to focus our efforts there, and despite having seen this species twice before in 2011, I was keen to see one again. I wasn't disappointed!
Our third day on #MountKinabalu was a wash out, with strong wind and heavy rain - it felt more like late October on Scilly! However before the weather closed in we spent first light watching a fantastic pair of Everett's Thrushes on the roadside - I love the smell of Zoothera in the morning!
The classic Whitehead's Trogan image. Our first afternoon on #MountKinabalu earlier this month found us watching a party of four trogans (two pairs). We encountered them on most days on the mountain.

Trying some TikTok trends. Crappy older millennial edition. 😆

Resting my legs. BRB.

13 days to #MountKinabalu ⛰️
Completed an intense training session at Shahbandar: 18 hills total, 9 hills one way, a quick refuel with lunch, then back for another 9 in reverse.
Less intense climbs/workouts until climb day, but will try and keep it consistent.

16 days until Mount Kinabalu climb ⛰️
When you're a busy working mum, sometimes getting out for a hike is not feasible.
Making do with some inclined treadmill walks. Sadly mine does a max incline of 15 - but better than nothing 😅 .

1 fitness goal before I hit 40: climb #MountKinabalu 🏔️
Planned it months ago with a solid training schedule... but between vacations, kid chaos, work, and a few sprains and illnesses, it's been far from smooth.
3 weeks to go. Let’s see how this goes.

No matter how many time I see & image Mount Kinabalu, Sabah, Borneo, it is not enough. Such an allure & call to the soul & spirit.
