Beach Thick-knee Close Up – Thailand Birding

January 30th, 2017 Nick Earlier this week, as part of our winter birding tour of South Korea, we spent a few days travelling down the East coast of this East Asian country, stopping in many harbours and bays to look for seabirds and a number of gull species.
