Bird
Watching Trips:
If you need help organizing a bird watching trip to Thailand,
take a look at the suggested itineraries for ideas on
creating a tailor-made trip and contact me for advice:
Thailand
bird tours.
All of the bird checklists featured on this
website have been compiled from my personal records and include
species that I know that other reliable observers have recorded
from the sites concerned. Species that are of doubtful occurence,
or are known from records that are yet to be confirmed by
the Thai records committe have been avoided.
As I update
these checklists the species will be listed as in the taxonomic
order used in the Birds
of Thailand published by Lynx Edicions in 2018 and I will
keep this order at least until there is a reprint of this excellent
field guide. Keeping the checklists up-to-date with current
taxanomic order is far too time-consuming given the rate at
which the taxonomic orders are revised by various authorities.
The checklists can be read straight from the website but they
are also available to download in a printable PDF format, with
check boxes for ticking what you see on your birding trip in
Thailand, for a small fee.
I have done my best to compile checklists that are as complete
as I can possibly make them referring to records reported online
via various media, with particular reference to records I consider
reliable on eBird.
There are undoubtedly species to add to these lists and I would
welcome any new sightings so that I can continue to offer them
in an as up-to-date format as possible: nickupton@thaibirding.com
Please
remember that all of the checklists on this site should be
regarded as unofficial; they are included as a guide to bird
watchers.
