Heavy rain yesterday morning foiled my attempt to go birding at Sri Nakorn Kuean Khan Park but today the skies were clear and I got a taxi from home to the park, arriving at 6.45am.

A Morning at Fang Hot Springs – Thailand Birding
March 16th, 2019
Nick I often visit Fang Hot Springs very briefly, stopping to see the Spot-winged Grosbeaks and then leaving but recently while leading a Thailand birding tour I was able to enjoy a longer session of birding at this pleasant location.

Lung Sin Waterhole; Besra Alert – Thailand Birding

Nick Baan Maka Nature Lodge is always a nice place to stay near Kaeng Krachan national park in western Thailand and I was lucky enough to have Ian and Games as my host for a night while I checked out a few birding spots around Petchaburi province over the last few days. Things are very wet [...]

Sometimes these hopes can take a severe hit if there are unfavourable conditions such as high [...]
