Birds around Kuala Lumpur
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Every measure here is worked out per 5 degree square, so this covers the wider area around Kuala Lumpur (0° to 5° latitude, 100° to 105° longitude, about 550 km across), not the city alone. Counts are shares of all birds records in the same weeks, so busier stations do not inflate them (methods).
