Bearded Vulture in Lincolnshire | British Birding

Thailand is an excellent country for a bird watching trip with a wide variety and number of impressive species.

“Winter” Thrushes at Mae Fa Luang Arboretum – Thailand Birding

In normal years anyone going birding in Thailand to see a variety of thrushes would be sincerely disappointed. Although there are a large number of species on the Thai list, many of them are very rare migrants that are not even seen annually.
