Thailand Birds, feathered kind only ....

One great area to see migrating birds is Thali Noi Lake in northern Songkhla, especially in January .... but I am sure there are other areas in Thailand...

So to kick off : Ducks

Make sure you keep your ducks in a row!!!

Really?

Should we have a bird topic?

Seems these are popular around Chiang Mai due to the sound they make. Personally I find them just noisy. Not happy about seeing them caught like this though, that is a capture cage. Canon S5 IS

They suddenly appear out of nowhere...

With my camera this is one of the few birds I can get close to. Pass him occasionally on my Mt. Bike rides.

Egret...

A classic case of having a grey sky, which does not do much for the overall picture! .... At least the bird turned out well... I think so anyway!

Seems to be a Pacific reef egret. It's in a classic crane like pose though.

Blue tailed bee eater. ( I think)

Not sure what bird this is ....

It's a cormorant of some kind.

@ samuijimmy... lovely close up, it's an Indian Cormorant (non breeding)

@draggons... yours is a Chestnut-headed Bee eater.

...and this one is a Green Bee eater.

Goshawk "@ samuijimmy... lovely close up, it's an Indian Cormorant (non breeding)" "Non breeding" ? .... how do they make babies? .... tickle the feather on the beak ???

Horn Bill.... I admit it was taken at Songkhla Zoo it was hard not to get fencing in the shot!!!

Thanks Goshawk.
