Doi Angkhang 30th
May to 1st June 2006
- Of the three “Doi’s” visited,
Doi Angkhang provided by far the most challenging birding......
Birds at Angkhang, particularly the specialities, were scarce,
generally wary, and hard to see in the abundance of thick cover...Dominic
Le Croissette reports.
Doi Lang (Pahompok), Fang,
Chiang Mai, 13-18th of May,
2006 
- Here at about 1187m above sea level is
a more or less sure area for Jerdon’s Bushchat. Adam and
spouse had gone up the mountain before us and located a female
bird feeding young....Peter Ericsson reports.
Doi Inthanon, 21st-25th
April 2006 and Doi Chiang Dao, 2nd-4th May 
- From my base in Chiang Mai I was able to make several very productive
birding trips to local national parks....Dominic
Le Croissette reports.
Doi
Inthanon 12-15/3/06
- My next target bird was
Fire-capped Tit. This bird is annual at the peach orchard not
far from the campground. I visited the orchard atleast 3 times
and managed to dip on the birds each time. Instead I connected
with a Yellow-streaked
Warbler, a bird I hadn’t ticked off before. In
all labor there is profit, the saying goes...Peter
Ericsson reports.
24 hours at Doi Pohompok(plus
Chiang Saen Lake) 17-19/2/05
- Ever since last season I have been longing
to set my sails towards this the 2nd highest (2200 some m) and
Northern most mountain of Thailand. Time constraints and the must
for a 4-wheel drive has always been the main blockage for going
up there. With the events of Tsunami our normal schedule was 'tossed
around' and it looked like I'd miss it again....Peter Ericsson
reports
Northern Thailand 6-13th
October, 2004 
- October is not exactly a time when foreign
birders flock to Thailand to fill up their bird lists. Many migrants
are not here yet and some who have arrived are still only in small
numbers...Peter Ericsson reports
|
Mae Fang, Doi Angkhang
and Golden Triangle! 14-22 of
March 2004 
- We decided to head straight for Mae
Fang National Park a couple of hour's drive North of Chiang
Mai. I was aware that the park, not being on a high altitude,
would not provide the longed-for cool weather. Of course,
I was looking forward to the Spot-winged Grosbeaks that
are regularly found here....Peter Ericsson reports
|
Central and Northern Thailand
14-25th of January 2003
- Went to Samut Sakorn and waders for the morning.
With a little help from the always willing spirited Mr. Tee the
search for the Spoonbilled Sandpiper soon was a success. As Mark
said: 'What an awesome way of starting a trip!". Other good birds
were Broadbilled Sandpiper, Long-toed Stint and a lonesome Sanderling.
There were many, many other birds around and is a great stop over
for wader enthusiasts....Peter Ericsson reports
North and Central Thailand
26th Nov - 17th Dec 2002
- This was our first birding trip to continental
Asia. For this it was our aim to get an overview of the typical
bird families of South East Asia and to see as many birds as possible.
We also wanted to see many of the wintering birds. Therefore
we decided to do the typical northern and central Thailand birding
circuit...Christoph Moning reports
|
Doi
Angkhang and Doi Inthanon 3-5/11/02

- Incredible! Incredible! How else can I describe standing,
surrounded by a milliard of birds, buzzing and dashing around
me in an area the size of an average classroom. Where was
I? Early morning at km 37.5, Doi Inthanon. An incredible
amount of moths and insects are attracted to the light by
the checkpoint here and a host of birds come to feed on
them in the wee hours of the day...Peter Ericsson

Birding in Northern and Peninsular
Thailand 16th - 30th April 2000
- Stephen Mawby reports with full details of
his trip to to Northern and Peninsular Thailand, with itinerary
and bird list.
|
Doi Inthanon
- Here the national flower of Tibet,
a red blossoming Rhododendron, flourishes. Its flowers
attract a myriad of Green-tailed Sunbirds, Chestnut-tailed
Minlas, Chestnut-crowned Laughing Thrushes and Black-headed
Sibias......Peter Ericsson reports
|
Doi Angkhang 2/3/02
- I have never really had a clear picture of
what Doi Ankhang is like. Only heard about its remoteness and
good birds. It was actually very easy to get to. There are many
mountain peaks around and looking over the valleys, many are still
covered in thick forest......Peter Ericsson reports
