Birding in Satun, Thailand, April 2022

Birding in Satun, Thailand, April 2022

Apr 25, 2022

Satun is a little-visited province of Thailand on the biorder with Malaysia. I always enjoy visiting it with several interesting birding locations within a short drive of Satun town where there is nice accommodation. In April 2022 I spent 24 hours in Satun province, on my way elsewhere, visiting Thalebun National Park, Tammalang Mangroves and Nong Pla Phraya Non-hunting Area as well as a few other sites, seeing a number of birds that are extremely range-restricted in Thailand.

1. Common Flameback

2. Dusky Eagle Owl

3. Swinhoe's White-eye

4. Blue Whistlingthrush

5. Brahminy Kite (juvenile)

6. Yellow-vented Bulbul

7. Sunda Pygmy Woodpecker

8. Mangrove Bue Flycatcher

Having been birding in Thailand since 1996 it is not often that I see I new bird these days but Dusky Eagle Owl was species number 919 that in Thailand for me, to make it a very memorable trip.
