Madai cave, Sabah

Madai cave, Sabah is one of the most popular cave for bird nest harvesting. The villagers uses long bamboo poles to climb up hundred of feet to reach these bird nest at the soffit of the caves to collect the bird nest. Unfortunately during my visit to the cave the villagers took a day off as it it also Malaysia National Day holiday.
