Greetings,
I was at Dam Cau Hai, just north of Da Nang on our way to Bach Ma mountain. I saw this kingfisher on a rock at the edge of the lagoon and I cant decide between common kingfisher or blue eared kingfisher. Photos #1 and #2 are attached.
We continued on the Bach Ma and either the weather was poor for birding or the drive took too long and the birding window had passed. However I got this very poor shot of a fast moving bird that was on the main trunk of a tree. I finally managed to get a picture as it was in the crook of the tree. The Merlin App identified it as a Laced Woodpecker and I can see that but am not 100%. Maybe someone else could chime in? Picture #3
Lastly a group of very small birds flew out f the fog and bounced nearly non-stop between a few trees. I was able to get two pictures, neither all that good, but maybe someone would recognize it off the bat.
Thanks
