Comments: Last morning in Bangkok so I set off for a proper bit of birding in a nearby hotspot. I took taxis there & back & had a nice long walk around most of the park, dodging the sometime enormous monitor lizards that were lounging around.
Weather: hot, humid, overcast but bright; one rain shower.
14 species
Little Egret X
Javan Pond-Heron 3 identified from chinese by red legs.
Spotted Dove X
Asian Palm-Swift X
Coppersmith Barbet 1 loudly calling just after I saw the shrike; it soon flew off foraging busily.
Brown Shrike 1 flitting around prominently amongst an area of well-spaced trees. It remained for a few minutes before flying away & I couldn't pick it up later on.
Large-billed Crow X - in quite large flocks, noisily bouncing around on the ground near to the maintenance buildings.
Streak-eared Bulbul X - several around, usually making some kind of noise.
Oriental Magpie-Robin X
Great Myna X
Common Myna X
Black-collared Starling X - several around the park for which it is well-known.
