    was there a fantail warbler in SE Asia?

    Hi Mike, The usual name for Fan-tailed Warbler (Cisticola juncidis) is, in Asia at least, Zitting Cisticola. This is a common resident bird in Thailand. Kaeng Krachan itself is mainly forested of course but if staying at the HQ (near the reservoir), you'll pass through fields and suitable...

    Thanks for your reply and sorry I missed it. I guess I had email notice switched off. No, I didn't go to Sultanpur - maybe for another day... Regards, Mark.

    India - Okhla Bird Sanctuary, New Delhi

    In October 2012, I visited Okhla Bird Sanctuary, New Delhi on two occasions. I have written a full report with details on how to get there, links to maps and photos, a log of both days and a full systematic list. The sanctuary is only an hour or so from the city centre and is a worthy day out...
