  • Species List
    Dec. 11, 2013 – Jan. 01, 2014 Thailand (Central and Northern) Species Trip List Compiled by Carlos Sanchez (HO)= Distinctive enough to be counted as heard only Summary: After having traveled through much of the tropical Americas, I really wanted to begin exploring a new region of the world. Thailand instantly came to mind as a great entry point into the vast and diverse continent of Asia, home to some of the world’s most spectacular birds from giant hornbills to ornate pheasants to garrulous laughingthrushes and dazzling pittas. I took a little over three weeks to explore the central and northern parts of this spectacular country: the tropical rainforests of Kaeng Krachen, the saltpans of Pak Thale and the montane Himalayan foothill forests near Chiang Mai. I left absolutely dazzled by what I saw. Few words can describe the joy of having your first Great Hornbill, the size of a swan, plane overhead; the thousands of shorebirds in the saltpans of Pak Thale, where I saw critically endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper; the tear-jerking surprise of having an Eared Pitta come to bathe at a forest pool in the late afternoon, surrounded by tail- quivering Siberian Blue Robins; or the fun of spending my birthday at Doi Lang, seeing Ultramarine Flycatcher, Spot-breasted Parrotbill, Fire-tailed Sunbird and more among a 100 or so species. Overall, I recorded over 430 species over the course of three weeks which is conservative relative to what is possible. Thailand was more than a birding experience for me. It was the Buddhist gong that would resonate through the villages in the early morning, the fresh and delightful cuisine produced out of a simple wok, the farmers faithfully tending to their rice paddies and the amusing frost chasers at the top of Doi Inthanon at dawn.

  • Birding in Taman Negara, Peninsular Malaysia
    Birding in Taman Negara, Peninsular Malaysia 2019.8.21 – 2019.8.28 Participants: Li-Chung Lu* & Tzung-Su Ding e-mail: [email protected] Figure 1 Crested Fireback (Lophura ignita) Introduction This trip was happened all of a sudden that we didn’t fully review enough birding information. The main reason I wrote this report is due to lack of birding information of Taman Negara after we arrive and found the map was quite incorrect. The forest loop near park center is not exist at all (please contact me if I’m wrong) but still have a eBird hotspot called forest loop with plenty of records, the length of most trails and loops also felt incorrect, and the shape and entrances of swamp loop was not correctly drawn on the map, either. Taking a bus from Kuala Lumpur (KL) is strongly recommended rather than renting a car because most of hotspots are inside the national park which could only enter through boats crossing Tembeling River every day, and the transportation to other hotspots (e.g. Fraser’s Hill) were also easily available. This place was pretty safe and convenient, and internet signal was also strong (both 4G and wifi in living area). All you can to do here is eat, sleep, and enjoy bird watching. Location: Taman Negara, Kuala Tahan, Tembeling, Pahang, Peninsular Malaysia Weather: Hot and no wind in daytime (about 30 – 32˚ C), cool at night (about 25 ˚ C) Traffic to Kuala Tahan: By bus We booked on the website of HAN travel, which provides transportation services by bus from KL to Kuala Tahan, a small village on the other river side of Taman Negara.

  • Bhutan Birding the Buddhist Kingdom II & Assam Extension 8Th April to 1St May 2018 (25 Days) Trip Report
    Bhutan Birding the Buddhist Kingdom II & Assam Extension 8th April to 1st May 2018 (25 Days) Trip Report Beautiful Nuthatch by David Erterius Trip report compiled by Tour Leaders: David Erterius & Greg de Klerk Rockjumper Birding Tours View more tours to Bhutan Trip Report – RBL Bhutan - Birding the Buddhist Kingdom II & Assam Ext 2018 2 Tour Summary There can hardly be a greater contrast on a birding tour than this tour through Assam and the Buddhist kingdom of Bhutan! We began our tour with an impromptu birding session in the hotel gardens, where we located Yellow-footed Green Pigeon, Indian Cuckoo, Blue-tailed Bee-eater, Coppersmith Barbet, Striated Swallow, Dusky Warbler, Striated Grassbird, Zitting Cisticola, Common Tailorbird and Oriental Magpie-Robin before navigating through the bustling Indian city of Guwahati. Our next stop was a regional waste dump. It is here, among the swathes of trash – which had been fermenting due to the pre-monsoon rains – that we connected with the critically endangered Greater Adjutant. Fittingly, these large grotesque stalks were found scavenging between heaps of waste being moved by excavators in close proximity to the main entrance. We then had the leisure of exploring the surrounding area, which yielded Lesser Whistling Duck, Garganey, Glossy Ibis, Grey-headed Swamphen, Black-winged Stilt, Whiskered Tern, Great Myna, Rosy Pipit, and Citrine and White Wagtails. After our visit to the rolling panoramas of the landfill site, we traversed many kilometres of cultivation and villages – dotted with occasional Black-winged Kite – as we made our way to Nameri. After a quick break in Tezpur, we made the final stretch of the journey to Nameri, collecting Grey-breasted Prinia en route, where we stopped for lunch in the company of a couple of Common Blue-tailed Bee-eater by Keith Hill Mynas.

  • Thailand Highlights 14Th to 26Th November 2019 (13 Days)
    Thailand Highlights 14th to 26th November 2019 (13 days) Trip Report Siamese Fireback by Forrest Rowland Trip report compiled by Tour Leader: Forrest Rowland Trip Report – RBL Thailand - Highlights 2019 2 Tour Summary Thailand has been known as a top tourist destination for quite some time. Foreigners and Ex-pats flock there for the beautiful scenery, great infrastructure, and delicious cuisine among other cultural aspects. For birders, it has recently caught up to big names like Borneo and Malaysia, in terms of respect for the avian delights it holds for visitors. Our twelve-day Highlights Tour to Thailand set out to sample a bit of the best of every major habitat type in the country, with a slight focus on the lush montane forests that hold most of the country’s specialty bird species. The tour began in Bangkok, a bustling metropolis of winding narrow roads, flyovers, towering apartment buildings, and seemingly endless people. Despite the density and throng of humanity, many of the participants on the tour were able to enjoy a Crested Goshawk flight by Forrest Rowland lovely day’s visit to the Grand Palace and historic center of Bangkok, including a fun boat ride passing by several temples. A few early arrivals also had time to bird some of the urban park settings, even picking up a species or two we did not see on the Main Tour. For most, the tour began in earnest on November 15th, with our day tour of the salt pans, mudflats, wetlands, and mangroves of the famed Pak Thale Shore bird Project, and Laem Phak Bia mangroves.

  • Bird Species Diversity in Five Protected Areas of Bangladesh
    FORKTAIL 28 (2012): 21–28 Bird species diversity in five protected areas of Bangladesh M. MONIRUL H. KHAN & NASIM AZIZ Birds of five protected areas (Lawachara, Satchari, Rema-Kalenga, Chunati and Teknaf) in north-east and south-east Bangladesh were studied during 2005–2008 by strip transect sampling and opportunistic surveys. Of 239 species of birds recorded, 189 were residents, 39 winter visitors, 6 summer visitors and 5 vagrants; 40 (17%) were ‘Very Common’, 66 (28%) ‘Common’, 48 (20%) ‘Fairly Common’ and 85 (35%) ‘Uncommon’. Population densities of eight species, selected as indicators of forest condition, were estimated; two understorey species, Red Junglefowl Gallus gallus and Puff-throated Babbler Pellorneum ruficeps, increased in the study period, perhaps owing to understorey regeneration increasing the carrying capacity and nesting sites, plus (for the junglefowl) reduced hunting pressure. However, illegal logging of timber trees continues in some areas, probably causing the decline of Oriental Pied Hornbill Anthracoceros albirostris. Densities of the other five indicators (Red-headed Trogon Harpactes erythrocephalus, Greater Racket-tailed Drongo Dicrurus paradiseus, White-rumped Shama Copsychus malabaricus, Hill Myna Gracula religiosa and White-crested Laughingthrush Garrulax leucolophus) remained more or less unchanged. INTRODUCTION Different species of bird occur in different vertical strata of an area and are adapted to specific types of plant and animal food. Bangladesh has a network of protected areas under the jurisdiction Therefore, avian population density and species diversity reflect of the Forest Department, but very little information is available the changes in their habitat conditions, and indicate the health of on the birds of these areas.
