Nathon pier today was jammed with minibus, taxis and safari pickups.

Our good friend with hands like a tripod (Angiud) might have the lens I need for this purpose

LOL

I can see my houseeeee!

Jose, finally, great news!!

Thanks a lot friends!

A question concerning the photos you guys made: What lenses did you use, especially for the monkeys and birds?

I have only the 70-200 f2,8 and the 2x magnifier from Canon, so I get up to 400 mm. Do you think that would be enough?

Angiud, what's with your Sigma telelens, still selling it or sold already?

Thanks for your replies!!!

I use the 150-500 for the birds and monkeys, the Sigma 150 macro for the insects.

400 mm can be enough if the animals are not so close, but not so far...

And yes, the big Sigma is still on sale ;-)

I've got too many pictures to upload them here, but if you're interested check out http://mitmig.web-log.nl

Wonderful pictures. And many butterflies too!

Hi Monique!

Khun Samarn at http://samarnbirdcamp.com/ has a huge knowledge of the area around KK. The lodge is nice and very close to the National Park. He and few more guide know when and (mostly) where to have a chance to see wild mammals. He is a professional birdwatcher and speak English.

Don't miss the massive butterflies mud-puddling at KK:

At the end of October the durian orchards were already empty...

I don't know. I'm not so much a durian lover... You could try in Thong Sala at the Coop Organic shop or at the local market.

Go along the road to Than Praphat Waterfall.

But now they collect already

Agree, storm coming

Personally I don't like too much the design of the Forza 300, IMHO bulky, so I didn't buy.

Technically should be ok.

I own a great pcx 125, of which I'm completely happy

AFAIK, there is no duty free at Suratthani airport, but I could be wrong. KL Air Asia terminal a very small one.
