River Lapwing is a species that has declined considerably in Thailand due to human disturbance along rivers as well as habitat destruction, particularly along parts of the Mekong.

Birding by the Beach at Pranburi | Thailand Birding
July 16th, 2020 
Nick Thailand is an excellent country for a bird watching trip with a wide variety and number of impressive species.

I recently spent a few [...]

Visiting Bang Khaem Fishponds | Thailand Birding
June 5th, 2020 Nick Recently I have been visiting birdwatching sites that I have either never been to before or visit very seldom.

Thailand’s Wading Birds in Flight | Thailand Birding
April 30th, 2020 Nick Wading birds (shorebirds to some) are group much-beloved by some birders but equally they often elicite a response of “I don’t do shorebirds” from others. I have accompanied birders with both attitudes to the Gulf of Thailand, which is undoubtedly one of the best locations in the world to observe waders. Those who love wading [...]
“Winter” Thrushes at Mae Fa Luang Arboretum – Thailand Birding
April 2nd, 2020 Nick 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. A few species do regularly visit Thailand and a few others are [...]
