Thailand Day Two

Another day on the saltpans today with the morning at Pak Thale Nature Reserve HERE and then Laem Phak Bia Royal Project HERE. Then after a failed mission to get out to a sand bar for Malay Plover (the tide and wind was wrong) we headed early over to Kaeng Krachan and our lodge for the next three nights, the Boathouse Paradise Resort. 

Highlights of the day included Nordmann's Greenshank, Asian Dowitcher, Chinese Egret, stacks of Eastern waders and Golden-bellied Gerygone at the Royal Project. 

Now on 112 for the trip. Live Trip Report HERE.
