Birding in Southern Thailand
Collection by Paddle Asia
Some of the many birds we see on our birding tours in southern Thailand
Oriental Pied Hornbill Koh Yao Noi
Oriental Pied Hornbills are very common on Koh Yao Noi and other islands in Phang Nga Bay. No one messes with them, so they're not shy. We often see them when we're kayaking. #hornbill #hornbills #thaibirds #thailandbirds #kayakingthailand #thailandkayaking #phangnga #kayak #kohyaonoi

Two common raptors in Khao Sok that are actually quite difficult to see elsewhere in Thailand are the Lesser Fish-Eagle (in the pic) and the Grey-headed Fish-Eagle. The Grey-headed looks almost the same. The tell-tale sign in a black bar on the underside of the terminal end of the tail. They are both huge, beautiful birds.
