This was our second visit to this fascinating reserve, which is located 2 1/2 hours due east of Bangkok. Last time (September 2012) it was large numbers of Blue-throated Bee-eaters that created interest, but floods causing an impassable stream, resulted in us turning round before travelling more than 5 km. This time there was no such problem and we were able to press on a further 15 km into the forest. Highlights included:
Oriental Cuckoo
Silver-backed Needletail
White-throated Rock Thrush
Mountain Hawk Eagle
Banded Broadbill
at least 15 Siamese Flamebacks
Mammals included:
Pileated Gibbon
Red Muntjac
