Whilst April is an excellent month for migration, this year I am taking it a bit easy to focus on spending time with my wife whilst she is back from the UK for a few weeks. The only birding I have done so far this month has been a quick look at the Ministry of Public Relations on 11th, which produced a two
Mugimaki Flycatchers (one 1st summer male and a female), and this morning I spent 2 hours at Suan Rotfai.
This morning's visit offered a taste of what might be on offer to a more ardent patchworker with me securing two new patchbirds - an
Oriental Dollarbird and a very long overdue Olive-backed Pipit. Other highlights included a flock of 8-10
Eye-browed Thrushes, 10+
Ashy Minivets, a very dapper adult male
Yellow-rumped Flycatcher and two
Fork-tailed Drongo Cuckoos.
