Southern Annam Nov 24Th – Dec 3Rd 2010
Birding trip report Southern Annam, Vietnam Nov 24th – Dec 3rd 2010 by Peter Schmidt, Sweden Introduction After experiencing some of the related Asian avifauna from a couple of previous trips to China, India and Malaysia, this was my first visit to Vietnam. Since I went in November and only had 10 days, I chose to focus my efforts in the south, going to classical birding spots on the Dalat plateau and in Cat Tien. November may not be the best time to see species like Pittas and Pheasants where you rely rather heavily on the vocalisation activity, but I still found the birding to be quite rewarding and I was able to find much of what I had hoped for, including most of the endemic taxa in Dalat. I arranged my stay through Vietnam Birding (www.vietnambirding.com). A bit more costly compared to going completely on my own, but certainly no extremes and it saved me a lot of time dealing with logistics and finding the best birding areas. Especially around Dalat finding the good forest could be tricky for a first time visitor and there is also much happening with new roads and resorts being built every year, e.g. around Lake Tuyen Lam. Also nice with some company since I was travelling on my own this time. Additional photos from the trip and contact info are found on my pbase site: www.pbase.com/luscinia Itinerary Nov 23-24th. Arrival Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) and further transport to Dalat. Late morning Nov 24th: Slopes on the southeastern side of Tuyen Lam lake. -

DSM, Tz. 1 - 142 pp. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction The Eastern Arc Mountain forests in Mufindi District lie at the south-western extreme of the Eastern Arc. The forests are found on the Mufindi plateau at the top of the Mufindi escarpment. The plateau includes a mosaic of forest, commercial tea cultivation, pine and eucalyptus plantation, coffee and subsistence agriculture. The forests of Mufindi are highly fragmented and many of them show high levels of disturbance some of which dates back over 50 years. Lovett & Pócs (1993) suggest that parts of the larger Mufindi forests such as Kigogo were cultivated in the mid 19th Century and cite the presence of agricultural ridges under the forest. -

Private Uganda Birds & Gorillas
Private Uganda Birds & Gorillas Trip Report 7th to 28th June 2014 Grauer’s Broadbill by David Hoddinott Trip Report Compiled by Tour Leader: David Hoddinott Trip Report - Uganda 2014 2 Tour Summary Uganda, the pearl of Africa as it is often referred to, is a remarkable country of astonishing diversity. Its small size, good road network and infrastructure, great food, the fact that it is friendly, peaceful and well geared for tourism, makes it a wonderful destination in which to bird and travel. Add a staggering bird list with over 1000 species, plus the added benefit of amazing wildlife including Mountain Gorillas, Chimpanzees, tree- climbing Lions, Leopard, Elephant, Buffalo and so much more, and it’s no wonder it’s rated as one of the top birding and wildlife countries in the world! Our exciting adventure started off with a visit to Mabamba Swamp on the edge of the vast Lake Victoria. Cruising through the channels on a motorised canoe we enjoyed Yellow-billed Duck by David Hoddinott great sightings of Long-toed Lapwing and Lesser Jacana which showed particular well, the latter being a key target. No sign of a Shoebill unfortunately, but with numerous opportunities ahead we continued birding unperturbed. Other superb sightings that morning included the fabulous Great Blue Turaco, Blue-breasted Bee-eater, stunning perched Red-headed Lovebird, Grey- rumped Swallow and the localised Weyns’s Weaver. Mabira Forest, our next port of call, was once again amazing! Even though it didn’t stop raining until 11: 30am on our full day in the forest, we still managed to see a vast majority of the specials including the shy Nahan’s Partridge, Afep Pigeon, Black-billed Turaco, dazzling male African Emerald Cuckoo, scarce Cassin’s Spinetail, Blue-breasted Kingfisher, African Pied African Dwarf Kingfisher by David Hoddinott Hornbill, Buff-spotted, Brown-eared and Yellow-crested Woodpeckers, elusive Jameson’s Wattle-eye, Lowland Sooty Boubou, Purple-throated Cuckooshrike, Toro Olive Greenbul, Yellow-lored Bristlebill and retiring Blue- shouldered Robin-Chat. -
Remote Tanzania
The wonderful Usambara Eagle Owl... our inevitable bird of the trip! (Pete Morris) REMOTE TANZANIA 27 SEPTEMBER / 1 – 16 / 24 OCTOBER 2016 LEADER: PETE MORRIS Our 2017 tour to ‘Remote Tanzania’ turned out to be a fantastic adventure that way-surpassed most of our expectations. And with the addition of a pre-tour Northern Tanzania endemics extension, and a post-tour Ud- zungwa Mountains extension, the tour really was converted to an ‘Ultimate Tanzania’. For most of the tour we were accompanied by our ever reliable, super friendly and effcient local driver and excellent local guide, and were blessed with largely good weather, most importantly when we were camping up in the mountains. With such a good set up and conditions, there were few excuses, so we effciently set about our task of hoovering up the endemics, whilst enjoying the other wonders that this great country has to offer. 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Remote Tanzania 2016 www.birdquest-tours.com The stunning Swynnerton’s Robin... a highlight of the Udzungwa Extension (Pete Morris) The pre-tour extension involved a whistle stop trek from Arusha to the Lariboro Plains and then down to Ndutu on the edge of the great Serengeti Plains and back via the amazing Ngorongoro Crater. Our task was to fnd the endemics: Grey-breasted Spurfowl, Yellow-collared and Fischer’s Lovebirds, Beesley’s Lark, Rufous-tailed Weaver and Ashy Starling all performed well alongside an excellent cast of other hoped-for birds and mam- mals. The main tour saw us travelling through arid plains and on to the South Pare Mountains, the East and West Usambaras, the attractive Pemba Island, the remote Uluguru and Ukaguru Mountains, the impressive Mikumi National Park and its surrounding miombo woodlands and the little explored Kilombero Plains. -

Best of Birding Cambodia & Vietnam
Best of Birding Cambodia & Vietnam Trip Report 5th to 22nd December 2014 (18 days) Giant Ibis at Tmatboey by Glen Valentine Trip Report compiled by Tour Leader: Glen Valentine Trip Report - RBT Best of Birding Vietnam & Cambodia 2014 Tour Summary The south-east Asian countries of Cambodia and Vietnam harbour some of Asia’s most tantalizing species, including a host of endemics, near-endemics and other specialties that are tough or impossible to see elsewhere in their limited distributions. Legendary and iconic avian gems such as Giant and White- shouldered Ibis, White-rumped Falcon, Bengal Florican, Greater Adjutant, Black-headed, Great Slaty and Pale-headed Woodpeckers, Germain’s Peacock-Pheasant, Green Peafowl, Bar-bellied Pitta, Red-vented and Indochinese Barbets, Dalat Shrike-babbler, Indochinese Green Magpie, Red-billed Scimitar Babbler, Grey-crowned Crocias by Luyen Nguyen Orange-breasted and Collared Laughingthrushes, Vietnamese Cutia, Grey-crowned Crocias, Yellow-billed Nuthatch and Vietnamese Greenfinch are just some of the many mouth-watering highlights available on this superb birding adventure. We managed to find and obtain good views of all of these species and many more during our challenging but rewarding Cambodia and Vietnam birding tour. This was our adventure… After our pre-tour extension of remote eastern Cambodia, where we enjoyed sightings of such mega-ticks as Cambodian Tailorbird, Mekong Wagtail, Pied Harrier, Great Hornbill, Milky Stork and Irrawaddy Dolphin, we began our main 2 ½ week tour of these two neighbouring countries. The trip focused on the best birding localities and targeted the endemics, near- endemics and other sought-after species on offer in each country. -

Not wanting to overdo it, however, we decided upon a late breakfast, followed by a stroll around Huan Hua Xi Park. The very well-maintained and tranquil gardens are crisscrossed by a wealth of pathways, waterways and bridges, making it the perfect place for a relaxed birding session. Indeed, we ended up spending our entire day there, seeing not only our main target - Ashy-throated Parrotbill, but also a great selection of other birds, including several we would not see again on the trip - Vinous-throated Parrotbills, Red-billed and White- cheeked Starlings, a flock of Swhinhoe's Minivets, Blyth's Leaf Warblers, Oriental Magpie-Robins, countless White-browed Laughingthrushes, Taiga Flycatchers, Red-billed Leiothrix, Streak-breasted Scimitar-Babbler, Chinese Blackbird and Rufous-capped Babbler all putting in appearances. In between our sessions in the park, we also enjoyed a scrumptious lunch and several interesting encounters with park-going locals. On day two of our adventure, we once again enjoyed a lie in, this time due to the scheduled time of our flight to Lhasa, though the day did not pass without birding. -
