Spoon-billed Sandpiper site at Pak Thale |
The seven days birding in Malaysia was very successful with 214 birds seen and another 6 birds heard only, which produced 65 lifers. The only Pitta of the Malaysian trip was a Blue-winged Pitta seen at Taman Negara, although we did hear a Malayan Banded Pitta calling once from across the river.
The trip to Central Thailand was organised by Stijn de Win of Birdingtours2Asia and also followed a standard itinerary from Bangkok to Pak Thale for the Spoon-billed Sandpiper, followed by visits to the national parks of Kaeng Krachan, Mae Wong and Khao Yai. We also birded at Petchaburi Paddyfields, Bueng Boraphet Wetlands and Wat Phra Phutthabat Noi Temple along the way. Peter Waanders from South Australia accompanied me for the Central Thailand trip and we have previously done a number of birding trips together.
We received two proposals for birding in
Central Thailand and selected Birdingtours2Asia, which was more expensive, as
we had previously had a successful trip to Northern Thailand with Stijn de Win.
About a month prior to the trip we were informed about a change in guide and
were given assurances that the new guide; “…
has done countless trips for us and has lived in Thailand for over 20 years. I’m
sure you will be in very good hands. He will have already finished 3 or 4 Thai
trips this year before you will start so you can be sure he will be up to date
with all the latest Thai birding news. He speaks good English of course but
also is fluent in Thai which may always come handy on a trip. You can be sure
it will not affect the quality of your trip.”
That all seemed fine and the proposed guide,
an expat Swede living in Thailand, had a good reputation according to various trip
reports. As it transpired the guide for Thailand did not come anywhere close to
meeting our expectations and although we had a good trip, it could have been a
lot better, if we had had a guide who was physically fit and keen to actually
go walking in the forests to look for birds. Peter Waanders and I
resorted to walking the roads and forest trails ourselves, and were successful
in finding quite a few of our target birds. We would however have been a lot
more successful had our guide accompanied us!
Despite this, the ten days birding in
Thailand was successful with 302 birds seen and another 7 birds heard only, however
this only produced 43 lifers. There were at least another 35 possible lifers on
my list (birds listed as possible by the tour operator) which I didn’t see. I
don’t expect to see all the possible birds but I do expect that we would at
least try for them. For example we didn’t do any nocturnal birding for Spotted
Owlet, White-fronted Scops Owl or Mountain Scops Owl, all of which were
possible lifers.
The only Pitta of the Thailand trip was a
Blue Pitta which was heard by the side of the road and our guide advised
against looking for it, as it was widespread and could be seen elsewhere. Well
as it transpired we didn’t hear another Blue Pitta, let alone see one, although
we did see a birding group from BirdQuest looking for the Blue Pitta in the
forest after hearing its call. Our guide preferred to drive around at speed
though the national parks, on the off-chance of hearing one call?
I subsequently informed Stijn de Win that the
Central Thailand trip was very disappointing and that I wouldn’t be doing any
further tours with Birdingtours2Asia.
I flew from Melbourne with Malaysian Airlines
which has direct flights to KL and connecting flights to Bangkok. No problems
with the flights and there was plenty of room on the planes.

Friday
27th February: KL to Bukit Tinggi to Taman Negara
Met up with Terence Ang at 5:30am at my hotel
in KL before heading up to Bukit Tinggi for some early morning birding. Had a
stake-out at Bukit Tinggi for the shy and elusive Mountain Peacock-pheasant, an
endemic for Malaysia. We saw an adult and juvenile bird, quite dark pheasants
but they have some beautiful blue colours on the tail which can be seen at
times.
Other interesting birds seen included
Raffles’s Malkoha, Silver-breasted Broadbill, Tiger Shrike, Cinereous Bulbul,
Grey-throated Babbler and Pin-striped Tit-babbler. The mist started to come in,
which made birding difficult, so we headed off at 10:30am for Taman Negara
National Park.
Arrived at Taman Negara and checked into our
comfortable and spacious accommodation. Took a small ferry across the river to
start our birding in the forests of Taman Negara. Saw many interesting birds
including brief views of Crestless Fireback, six Crested Partridge,
Rusty-breasted Cuckoo, Square-tailed Drongo-cuckoo, Rhinoceros Hornbill, Greater
Racket-tailed Drongo, Banded Woodpecker, Maroon Woodpecker, Buff-necked
Woodpecker, Great Slaty Woodpecker, Black-and-red Broadbill, Rufous-winged
Philentoma, Lesser Green Leafbird, Ochraceous Bulbul, Chestnut-winged Babbler,
Rufous-crowned Babbler and Asian Fairy-bluebird.
Continued birding after dinner and saw a Barn Owl briefly in flight. Bit of a long day but a very successful day.
Saturday
28th February: Taman Negara
Raffles's Malkoha |
Continued birding after dinner and saw a Barn Owl briefly in flight. Bit of a long day but a very successful day.
Today we had a full morning birding in Taman Negara, with a two hour break after lunch followed by late afternoon birding and then some evening birding.
In the morning we took a long walk along the
river and then up some hills in the forest. Some areas of the forest were very
quiet and we didn’t see many of the birds we had seen on the previous day,
after revisiting some of the same areas. We did however see a nice range of
birds including close-up views of Short-toed Coucal and Malayan Crested Jay.
The Short-toed Coucal is identified by the black underwing seen only in flight.
The Malaysian Crested Jay is usually difficult to locate and we managed to see
two groups of birds, which was something special.
Also saw Large Green Pigeon, Banded
Kingfisher, Black Hornbill, Wreathed Hornbill, Black Magpie, Abbott’s Babbler,
Greater Green Leafbird and Purple-naped Sunbird. We had a couple of Malaysian
Rail-babbler calling fairly close but weren’t able to find the birds. A Great
Argus was also heard but this bird was a long way off.
Clouded Monitor |
Sunday 1st March: Taman Negara
Today we had another full morning birding in Taman Negara, with a two hour break after lunch followed by late afternoon birding and then some evening birding.
In the morning we visited a different part of
the forest and had great views of a pair of Lesser Fish Eagle close to their
nesting site. In the same area we were trying to locate a babbler that we could
hear, when I spotted a Chestnut-naped Forktail in the undergrowth. Very nice
looking bird and the only one seen for the trip. Other nice birds seen included
Raffles’s Malkoha, Chestnut-breasted Malkoha, Scarlet-rumped Trogon,
Blue-banded Kingfisher, Yellow-crowned Barbet, Sooty Barbet (split from Brown
Barbet), Banded Woodpecker, Checker-throated Woodpecker, Crimson-winged
Woodpecker, Orange-backed Woodpecker, Blue-crowned Hanging Parrot, Banded
Broadbill, Black-and-yellow Broadbill, Dark-throated Oriole and Ferruginous
Flycatcher.
During the afternoon walk I spotted a
Blue-winged Pitta in the open and we had great views of the bird, this was the
only pitta seen for the entire trip. We also had good views of Crested
Partridge, Greater Coucal, Chestnut-winged Babbler and many Germain’s Swiftlet.
We had a boat trip scheduled, however as a
result of the recent floods, this trip wasn’t operating. The floods must have
been huge with the river rising some 80 to 90m and flooding much of the
accommodation, which is situated within the national park and where most
birders would usually stay.
Taman Negara has to be one of the top birding
destinations in Peninsular Malaysia and we only saw a very small part of this
huge reserve. Taman Negara was declared a national park in 1938 and is
Malaysia's largest national park, covering over 434,300 hectares of primary
forest and spaning across three states Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang.
Monday
2nd March: Krau Wildlife Reserve and Bukit Fraser
Instead of birding at Taman Negara in the
morning, we headed down to Jerantut birding along the way. We saw four Crested
Honey Buzzard (Siberian subspecies) on migration, Changeable Hawk-eagle,
Oriental Pied Hornbill and White-breasted Waterhen along the way. Crested Honey Buzzard (Siberian subspecies) |
After lunch we drove to The Gap (start of the road up to Bukit Fraser) arriving at 1:30pm and then birded up the road to the village of Bukit Fraser (Fraser’s Hill). Later on we checked into our comfortable and spacious accommodation and after dinner continued birding into the evening.
Interesting birds seen included
Rufous-bellied Hawk-eagle, Grey Nightjar, Fire-tufted Barbet, Black-browed
Barbet, Rufous Piculet, Greater and Lesser Yellownape, Lesser Racket-tailed
Drongo, the impressive Common Green Magpie, Grey-chinned Minivet,
Yellow-bellied Warbler, Golden Babbler, Blue Nuthatch, Orange-bellied Leafbird
and Black-throated Sunbird.
Another very productive and enjoyable day
with 85 species recorded reflecting the range of habitats visited. It was a lot
cooler in Bukit Fraser and a pleasure to walk around without sweating buckets.
Met up with some English birders in the evening and they were feeling the heat
at Bukit Fraser. They were birding by themselves without transport, so doing a
lot of walking and their next destination was nine days at Taman Negara, so in
for some tough birding.
Tuesday
3rd March: Bukit Fraser
Today we had a full day at Bukit Fraser, with
a short break after lunch, birding through into the evening.
Interesting birds seen during the morning included
Dark Hawk-cuckoo, Collared Owlet, pair of Long-tailed Broadbill at nest,
Blyth’s Shrike-babbler, Black-and-crimson Oriole, Streaked Wren-babbler, Malayan
Laughingthrush (an endemic, split from Chestnut-crowned Laughingthrush in 2006),
Everett’s White-eye, Rufous-browed Flycatcher, Large Niltava and White-tailed
Robin.
In the afternoon we took a drive down to The
Gap for some dusk birding and saw Rhinoceros Hornbill, Blyth’s Hawk-eagle, Bat
Hawk, Grey Nightjar, Malaysian Eared Nightjar, Golden-whiskered Barbet,
Red-throated Barbet and Slaty-backed Forktail.
Large Niltava (tail missing!) |
Grey Nightjar |
Wednesday 4th March: Bukit Fraser
Today we had another full day at Bukit Fraser, with a short break after lunch, birding through into the evening.
In the morning we took a walk around the Telekom Loop, a well known birding route. Interesting birds seen were about 20 migrating Crested Honey Buzzard (Siberian subspecies), plus Red-headed Trogon, Red-bearded Bee-eater, Lesser Shortwing, Yellow-browed Warbler, Chestnut-crowned Warbler and Fire-breasted Flowerpecker.
Red-headed Trogon |
Thursday
5th March: Fraser’s Hill to Paya Indah Wetlands to KLIA
Morning birding at Fraser’s Hill on the road
down to The Gap seeing Blue-eared Barbet plus fleeting glimpses of
Chestnut-naped and Slaty-backed Forktail. We then stopped briefly at Millenium
Park in Kuala Kubu Bahru for some lowland species, such as Brown Shrike and
Paddyfield Pipit. We continued on southwards, skirting around KL and had lunch
before arriving at Paya Indah Wetlands at midday.
These wetlands were good for birding and even
though it was very hot and humid, we added quite a few birds to the trip list,
such as Brahminy Kite, Yellow Bittern, Black Bittern, Blue-throated Bee-eater,
Common Flameback, Zebra Dove, Golden-bellied Gerygone, Brown-throated Sunbird
and Baya Weaver. While enjoying an ice cold coke we had two Black Baza land in
a tree next to where we were sitting, very impressive raptors.
We packed up at 2:30pm and took the short
drive to KLIA, well in time for my 6pm flight to Bangkok.

6th MarchHad a relaxing day and met up with Peter Waanders in the evening at a very pleasant restaurant within walking distance of the hotel.
Saturday
7th March: Pak Thale and Laem Pak Bia
Met up with our guide at 5am and drove
through Bangkok and then southwest to the salt farms of Pak Thale and Laem Pak
Bia. Thaibirding by Nick Upton provides very detailed and useful information on
Laem
Pak Bia and Pak Thale. The first target was the Spoon-billed
Sandpiper which we found easily, seeing two birds out of the estimated six
birds currently in the Gulf of Thailand. Birding on the beach |
Pallas's Gull |
Kentish Plover (White-faced subspecies) |
Temminck's Stint |
We drove into the national park in the morning and spent time at a small lake alongside the road, an area just before the Ban Krang campsite and at stream crossings 1 to 3. We heard Blue Pitta on the way in but didn’t look for it. Thaibirding by Nick Upton provides very detailed and useful information on Kaeng Krachan National Park.
Interesting birds included Tickell’s Brown
Hornbill, Fork-tailed Drongo-cuckoo, Asian Barred Owlet, Orange-breasted
Trogon, Blue-beared Bee-eater, Green-eared Barbet, Blue-eared Barbet, Greater Yellownape,
Streak-breasted Woodpecker, Vernal Hanging Parrot, twelve Golden-crested Myna,
Ruby-cheeked Sunbird and Crimson Sunbird.
The Asian Drongo-cuckoo was recently split
into three species, the Fork-tailed, Square-tailed and Moluccan Drongo-cuckoo.
The first two species overlap in range in both Thailand and Malaysia but can be
separated by call and by their distinctive tail shape. Our guide however had no
idea about the ranges of the respective drongo-cuckoos in Thailand and the
Craig Robson field guide didn’t help either.
We heard Pale-legged Leaf Warbler but our
guide was reluctant to look for it, so Peter took a short walk through the
rainforest and managed to get good views and photos. I only went partway into
the forest so only heard it calling but didn’t see it. Fortunately I did see it
later in the trip.

Monday 9th March: Kaeng Krachan National Park
We had another full day in the national park and took a 4WD up into the higher parts around Panoeng Thoeng mountain.

The Leaf Warbler’s are a confusing species at
the best of times with the Blyth’s Leaf Warbler being split into three species,
Blyth’s, Claudia’s and Hartert’s Leaf Warbler. The very similar White-tailed
Leaf Warbler has been split into Davison’s and Kloss’s Leaf Warbler. The Craig Robson
field guide is out of date and doesn’t show any of the recent Leaf Warbler
splits or provide any relevant illustrations.
Tuesday 10th March: Baan Song Nok

Wednesday
11th March: Phetchaburi Paddyfields
Today we visited the farming area of
Phetchaburi in the early morning before taking the long drive to Mae Wong
National Park, situated northwest of Bangkok. We saw just over 50 birds in the couple of hours birding along the roadside. The most interesting birds were Yellow Bittern, Grey-capped Pygmy Woodpecker, Freckle-breasted Woodpecker, Black-browed Reed Warbler, Stejneger’s Stonechat and Asian Golden Weaver.
The Stejneger’s Stonechat is a recent split from the Siberian Stonechat and both occur in Thailand. Our guide wasn’t forthcoming on the differences between these stonechats and their respective ranges. The best reference that I subsequently found was a blog Siberian Stonechats in Thailand which provides a good description and photos.
Local Thai photographer equipment usually focussed on a nesting site |
Thursday
12th March: Wae Wong National Park
We drove into the national park in the morning
and spent most of our time up at the top close to the Chong Yen campsite.
Thaibirding by Nick Upton provides very detailed and useful information on Mae Wong
National Park.
Whilst we had a good day birding, seeing
about 60 birds, the park didn’t come anywhere close to the Birdingtours2Aisa
claims that, “This park proves highly
productive on any given day and is one of the few locations in Thailand where a
day list of over 100 bird species is a good possibility. This park can easily
match better known parks like Doi Inthanon or Doi Ang Khan when it comes to
quality birding.”
Whilst we did find the Coral-billed
Scimitar-Babbler, we didn’t see the other specialities, such as the
Rufous-necked Hornbill and Burmese Yuhina. Other interesting birds seen included
Rufous-throated Partridge, Pin-tailed Green Pigeon, Cook’s Swift, Speckled
Piculet, White-browed Piculet, Radde’s Warbler, Marten’s Warbler, Yunnan
Fulvetta, Red-headed Trogon, Blue Whistling Thrush, Rufous-browed Flycatcher, Buff-breasted
Babbler, Grey-throated Babbler, Small Niltava and Chestnut-flanked White-eye.
The Cook’s Swift were seen together with the
more abundant Pacific Swift and were significantly different in appearance, having
a narrower white rump. Myself and our guide |

Friday
13th March: Mae Wong to Bung Boraphet
We had a morning’s birding in Mae Wong
through till 11:30am, initially driving up to the Chong Yen campsite and
spending some time around the campsite.
Peter and I then walked down the hill to a bird
hide, birding along the way. Our guide in the meantime drove down to the hide
and waited there. There were a couple of target birds we were after, such as
the White-throated Bulbul, which we didn’t manage to find. We did however see
some nice birds on the walk down the road including a pair of Long-tailed Broadbill.
There were a few additional birds seen for
the trip list which included Green Barbet, Silver-eared Laughingthrush,
Striated Yuhina and Blue-throated Blue Flycatcher
We arrived at the Bueng Boraphet Wetlands at
3pm and birded through till 6pm. It was very hot and humid at the wetlands but
quite a productive birding area. There we had great views of Eastern Marsh
Harrier hawking over the wetlands, plus saw Oriental Pratincole,
Freckle-breasted Woodpecker, Sand Martin, Plain-backed Sparrow, Dusky Warbler
and about 10 Eastern Yellow Wagtail. Our guide was battling with the heat and
had to retire to the car, whilst we continued birding. Long-tailed Broadbill in the forest canopy |

We overnighted in Nakhon Sawan.
Saturday
14th March: Bung Boraphet and Wat Phra Phuttahabat Noi
We had a boat trip at Bung Bhoraphet in the
morning which was very pleasant. On the lake we had quite a few Ferruginous
Duck (Pochard), many Cotton Pygmy Goose, a couple of Tufted Duck, hundreds of
Lesser Whistling Duck and thousands of Garganey. Ferruginous Duck (Pochard) |
Grey-headed Lapwing |
I did see my first johnsoni subspecies of the Black-crested Bulbul which has the attractive red throat. We then drove through to our comfortable chalet accommodation close to Khao Yai National Park.
Sunday 15th March: Khao Yai National Park
We had a full day in Khao Yai NP, which was
very pleasant and wasn’t too busy considering it was the weekend. Thaibirding by Nick Upton provides very
detailed and useful information on Khao
Yai National Park.
We birded along the roads and at various
sites throughout the national park. Interesting birds included Silver Pheasant,
Siamese Fireback, Besra, Greater Flameback, Black-winged Cuckooshrike,
Grey-eyed Bulbul, Claudia’s Leaf Warbler (ID’d by call), Alström's Warbler,
Pale-legged Leaf Warbler, White-crested Laughingthrush, Blue Rock Thrush, Hainan
Blue Flycatcher, Siberian Blue Robin and Cambodian Flowerpecker (subspecies). Hainan Blue Flycatcher |
White-rumped Shama |
In the evening Peter bought a bottle of wine and we went to an excellent local restaurant which served very good Australian steaks. An expensive meal for Thailand at 600 Baht per person (A$24) but an enjoyable meal and the only decent meal that we had in Thailand.
Monday
16th March: Khao Yai to
Bangkok Airport
We had a final morning of birding in Khao Yai
NP finishing up at 11pm and heading back to our accommodation to have a shower
and pack up.
Had a few new birds for the trip list, such
as Red-breasted Parakeet and Two-barred Warbler. I also saw two White-bellied
Erpornis on a forest walk.
We did see a Red-bellied Rock Thrush, the philippensis subspecies of the Blue Rock
Thrush, which looks similar to a Chestnut-bellied Rock Thrush rather than a
Blue Rock Thrush. HBW states that “race
philippensis is highly distinctive in plumage and to some extent apparently
also in ecology, but intergradation extensive” and Mark Brazil in Birds of
East Asia states that the “species merits
splitting as Blue Rock Thrush and
Red-bellied Rock Thrush”.
Drove to Bangkok Airport arriving in plently
of time for our early evening departures.
