Burma

Yesterday needing to obtain a new 90 day visa, I left Thailand at Mae Sai and entered Burma, for a total of around 10 minutes! five of which I stood on the bridge which forms the boarder, adding Yellow-browed Warbler, Eurasian Swallow and Scarlet-backed Flowerpecker to my Burma list.

Afternoon drove to Chiang Dao, noting a couple of Racket-tailed Treepies across the road and just outside Thaton a Rufous-winged Buzzard. Arrived at Chiang Dao late afternoon, and opted for a cold beer after a long drive, rather than going birding. Several night birds calling in the evening with Asian-barred Owlet, Collared and Mountain Scops Owl and Large-tailed Nightjar noted.
