  • Birding by the Beach can sometimes be frustrating for birders on holiday in Thailand with non-birding partners. However, birding in Thailand is full of opportunities to enjoy birds and in this virtual birding trip to Pranburi I guide you around the area to show you that there are lots of interesting birds to see within reach of a beach resort. This is the third of my video birding adventures and in it I will show you birds that include Malaysian Plover and Pacific Reef Egret as well as many others including two species of beautiful Bee-eaters. Birding in Thailand in the bird breeding season means that resident birds can be seen at their best, although other times of the year would have more migratory birds.

      I have seen Long-billed Plover and Kentish Plover in South Korea but not Common Ringed Plover. I have enjoyed several winter birding trips there, it's a great country.

    Definitely enjoy these informative videos, Nick...question for knowledgeable English birder....we are here in 8" snow (aberdeenshire)..and we we have 7, yes 7 Robins in back garden feeders..how come? Explanation required...rsvp. John Jackson

    • @BirdingwithNick
      @BirdingwithNick  2 роки тому

      Hi John, glad to know that you like the videos. 7 Robins is a fair number but although males do defend winter territories, if there are migrant birds in the area and the weather is severe they will collect at one food source. Of course they will be more tolerant of each other if they are females or perhaps young males. But the fact that you mention the deep snow is the real reason. The need for food overcomes the territorial instinct; a waste of energy fighting each other when every drop of energy is needed to survive the cold weather.
