After 5 days of birding in Thailand, is time to go back to Singapore. While on our way to airport, we have about 2 hours to spare so we make a pit stop at Pak Phli.
There are 2 different habitats in this area. We should be able to see open country birds.
As well as water birds since this is also a paddies field.
One of the most common lapwing in Thailand is this Red-wattled lapwing. You will not miss it in any open country area.
Another common open country bird that we saw is this Green bee-eater.
Migratory Blue tailed bee-eater has also arrived here in Thailand.
Asian pied starling may not be common in Singapore, but they are very common here in Thailand.
Little Cormorant getting sunlight to help speed up the drying of the feathers.
Pond heron is fishing from the top of lotus leaf.
This Black drongo took few attempts before able to perch steadily on top of the lotus flower bud.
Another common bird of prey of open country is this Black-shouldered kite.
One of the rare find of this trip will be this Watercock in breeding plumage! Can't wait to coma back to Thailand for more birding soon.
