We flew north out of Bangkok to the city of Chiang Mai. From there we took a 2 day birding trip to Doi Inthanon National Park -- home to almost half of the known bird species in Thailand. We had organized a guide -- and with his help we spotted about 100 species! Some we were able to view for extended periods of time; others just a fraction of a second. But we went 12 hours a day....and had a great time.
Alan's favorite bird was the Mrs. Gould Sunbird; mine was the Scarlett Minivet.
