Kaeng Krachan - Day Two

It rained all day on Saturday 18th and birds were few and far between. We started the day in a hide where we had Red-legged Crake, Silver Pheasant and Greater Necklaced Laughing Thrush within the first hour, but with rain getting heavier added nothing new in two further hours! Birding the mid-elevation parts of Kraeng Krachan yielded just 12 further trip species in many hours with the best bird being Great Barbet. I ended the day on 441 birds for the year and added 8 lifers that day to get to 90 in 2011.
