Golden-naped Barbet, Mt Kinabalu National Park, Borneo

The highest-ranging of Borneo’s endemic barbets, found in montane forest from 1000 m up to 3000 m or more. Stunning emerald-green with neon-powder-blue crown and throat; namesake golden nape only visible from certain angles. We saw him high up at Mount Kinabalu.

We could get closeup looks from the viewing platform.
