[QUOTE="Lerxst, post: 3689814, member: 118326"] Happy Monday from Bangkok. Week # 11 featured a weekend trip up to the Chiang Mai province of Thailand, which is a lovely place with outstanding birding. Here there are mountains and cooler temperatures and lots of wintering birds. Photos are here: [url]https://legallyblindbirding.net/2018-gbwy-2/[/url] Working Days: 5 New species identified: 45 Total to date: 583 23.3 % of goal, 21.1 % of year used Sites visited: Doi Ang Khang & Doi Lang. These are great areas to find a number of birds that are not widely distributed in Thailand - we picked up quite a few that are not found (or at least are not common) in Doi Inthanon, which is the national park closest to the city and which gets considerable birding attention. Himalayan Cutia, Ultramarine Flycatcher, Hume's Pheasant, Giant Nuthatch, Hodgson's Frogmouth, Vivid Niltava, Spectacled Barwing, and Crested Finchbill are a few of the standouts. I suppose I should be ranking all these sites in terms of their overall quality of birds and birding experience offered. This one would have to be in the top three so far this year. Next weekend, another Friday night - Sunday night pair of flights, this time to Manila and Subic Bay, Philippines. Thanks for reading! [/QUOTE]
