Although I have lived in “Bangkok” for many years I hardly ever do any birding within the province of Bangkok itself. The main reason for this is that I have always lived close to, or just into the next province of Samut Prakan. Today I found myself with some time and decided to visit a [...]

Black-crowned Night Herons at Wat Phutta Bucha – Thailand Birding
June 22nd, 2019 Nick Wat Phutta Bucha is a fairly typical Buddhist temple, similar to thousands of others around Thailand, but one that happens to be fairly close to where I live and with hidden secret around the back of the temple complex. A canal forms the boundary of the temple grounds at the rear and a group of [...]

Hotel Grounds & Golf Course Birds – Thailand Birding
June 18th, 2019 Nick Much gets written about the prime birding spots in Thailand such as Kaeng Krachan, Doi Lang, Pak Thale and others but there are a vast amount of other locations, both national parks and otherwise, that do not get talked about much. Many visitors to Thailand are accompanied by non-birding friends or family and cannot get [...]

Birding When Not Birding – Thailand Birding
April 1st, 2019 Nick For the vast majority of tourists to Thailand the primary focus of the trip will not be birding. Even for many birders a holiday to Thailand is a non-birding, family holiday which locates them away from prime bird watching sites and over the last few days I have found myself in that situation taking a [...]

Migrants, Heat & Humidity – Thailand Birding
March 17th, 2019 Nick 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. Getting out of the air-conditioned taxi I was immediately hit with high temperatures and even higher humidity – the previous [...]

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. In the early morning there is always a lot of bird activity and staying nearby at Tangerine [...]

Lung Sin Waterhole; Besra Alert – Thailand Birding
February 26th, 2019 Nick Sometimes things do not go quite according to plan. Hides around Kaeng Krachan national park provide birders with a lot of superb sightings of both common and scarce birds. Right now there are a number of hides where good birds can be seen but one of the most consistently good experiences can be had at [...]
