One of the great spectacles of any birding trip to Cambodia is a visit to the waterbird colonies at Prek Toal Reserve on Tonle Sap where birders can be surrounded by huge numbers of waterbirds from a trip on a small boat.

Birding at Bach Ma National Park – Vietnam Birding
December 11th, 2022 Nick At the beginning of November 2022 I found myself with the opportunity to visit Bach Ma National Park, near Danang in Vietnam.

Queen Sirikit Park Autumn Birding | Thailand Birding
October 23rd, 2022 Nick When it comes to spring and autumn Bangkok-based birders head to the city’s parks in search of a wide variety of passage migrants.

Beach Birding in August | British Birding
August 12th, 2022 Nick Some birding locations are great to visit because they are new and exciting to explore, with all the possibilities of seeing new birds that goes with that. Other locations are great to visit because they are familiar, always have lots of birds to see, even if they are quite predictable but are just a place [...]
Birding at Cat Tien National Park – Vietnam Birding
July 23rd, 2022 Nick Out of the car, across the river, into the forest and within moments a stunning Bar-bellied Pitta emerges from the vegetation of the tropical forest floor; this is how birding should be every time one visits a new location with one of the target species showing itself well for full appreciation within minutes of arrival.

Forest Birding at Kitulgala – Sri Lanka Birding
May 5th, 2022 Nick If you want superb views across a forest-lined river, steamy mist forming over the forest, a fantastic morning chorus and lots of birds then Kitulgala is the perfect place.
