[QUOTE="dalat, post: 1478452, member: 65207"] Tuyen Lam Lake near Dalat is sort of my local patch since the year or so I am birding. Well actually I am probably birding more at the site of Ta Nung, because access and birding is so easy there. But I always enjoy Tuyen Lam very much, maybe because it's more of a challenge and there are always some surprises to be found there. As access to this site is a little complicated, I made a small map that Hanno has included in one of his excellent trip reports:
