This thread is about young birders continuing their interest, not swapping notes on your shabby Thai hol! Yep i went to Khao Yai but dint look for Masked Finfoot! Fair play to Charlie Hesse for thinking outside the box! That sounded shouty but wasn't!Anyway if you're a young birder, sorry but sort yourself out, sorry but that's the way it is. Ask for guidance off a local respected dude. I birded from 15 onward on my own and you certainly learn your birds... life list might take a back seat tho! As i said before get a group together and go to Spain, it's great birding and fun too. I hate to say it but when i was a young birder i was starved of contact, desperate to discuss the latest sightings... But you do learn to separate your Marsh Tits from your Willow, etc.!!!ATVB.</blockquote>
