This report covers my second birding trip to Asia. Having birded previously in Malaysia,

I decided to join Birding2Asia on their tour of Northern Thailand. I’m pretty happy with

the many birding highlights and the amazing total of 403 species seen in these 2 most

enjoyable weeks, the success of which could only be guaranteed by a well organized tour. 

Visit www.birding2asia.com to put yourself in the very capable hands of Tom Bex and the Birding2Asia team.
