Although I am in Northern Thailand as part of a non-birding trip, I wanted to make time to look for a few rare species on the east side of Doi Lang along with it being a great place to get to grips with a new camera, blessed as it is with several species that are [...]

Birding from Shanghai – China Birding
December 13th, 2018
Nick I recently returned from leading an enjoyable and bird-filled tour to Southeast China where we were able to observe many of Asia’s rarest migratory waterbirds. Our trip consisted of three distinct sections, the first of which took us to coastal wetlands and farmland to the north and Southeast of our starting point, Shanghai, where we [...]
Garden Birding at Baan Maka – Thailand Birding
October 29th, 2018
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 [...]

The tide was falling so it was a good time to check out the birds feeding on the rocks at the base of the harbour’s southern wall, a regular site for finding Purple [...]
Autumn Birding in the Alps – Austria Birding
October 2nd, 2018
Nick There is no doubting the beauty of the Alps and to be able to experience them in near perpetual September sunshine was wonderful over the last few weeks in Austria. For birders Autumn is not really the time to visit but I spent some time birding in the mountains while on a general touristic visit [...]
