Khao Yai, Thailand
2-4/1/05 
- We arrived at Juladit resort a bit before
noon , checked in and birded the grounds around the resort for
awhile. The plot of land that is right before the resort is normally
a sure spot for Red-breasted Parakeets that come to roost in the
evenings. In the late morning they have mostly taken off to their
feeding grounds but we did manage to find a few birds still hanging
around...Peter Ericsson reports.
Limestone Wren-Babbler in
Thailand
- The Limestone Wren-Babbler, Napothera
crispifrons, is a locally common bird of central Thailand.
However, the habitat where the birds are found is limestone crags,
and therefore there are few accessible sites. This brief report
gives details about one such site, at a Buddhist temple (wat)
near Khao Yai national park...Gary and Marlene Babic report.

Khao Yai 26-27/10/03

- A Black-naped Kingfisher faithfully
kept to its perch in search for food. Several Red-throated
Flycatchers kept calling and at times dropping to the ground
for an insect. Then our eyes fell on a passing wet season
migrant, the Ferruginous Flycatcher. Great little bird!...Peter
Ericsson reports.

Thailand, Khao Yai
19-21/09/02
- Martin Daniel, a British birder presently
living in Singapore and myself just visited Khao Yai National
park for a couple of days. This may be the most 'risky'
time, weather wise, but though we saw little of the sun,
we were spared any heavy downpours...Peter Ericsson
reports.

A Taste and twitch of Thailand
July 2002 
- Having a week in Thailand, I decided on 4
days in the Khao Yai National Park to have my
first taste of Asian Bird watching. Situated about 200km from
Bangkok in the central north of Thailand. Thailand has 16% of
its total area under national parks and wildlife reserves. Khao
Yai covers 2200km square kilometres with much for the park at
elevations of 600 to 1000 metres and covered by tropical broad-leaved
evergreen forest...Glen Holland reports
Khao Yai 22-23/2/02
- Leaving the extreme heat of Bangkok behind
us, we started climbing the mountain in the early afternoon. A
stop at the first lookout gave opportunity for my first try of
the scope. A flock of Spangled Drongos with their shiny bluish
wings were easy to focus on. A Golden-fronted Leafbird was a bit
harder but we all got to see it. Meanwhile Hill Mynas flew over
head....Peter Ericsson reports.
