Hi John

some very nice work you have there on Flickr..

From that location, you're fairly close to Nam Nao National Park.. an excellent place & one of my favourites in all Thailand. Highly recommended.

Also, Phu Khieo Wildlife Sanctuary is nearby. Never been there though, but i'm told its good with virtually everything you may see at Nam Nao + a lake with all that might attract..

Of course, if you want to drive that little bit more.. The 'king', Khao Yai isn't that far away either.. Though an overnighter here would be better..

Goshawk, Thank you, much appreciated, i will have to check out these places, Best wishes to you for the new year, ,, John
