Migrants

Common Myna
It was impossible to get onto the local patch this morning due to high water levels, birding was confined to the drier areas of scrub around it's edges and Suphanburi. Despite this I did manage a decent list of migrants and returning winter visitors, migrants included a male and female Yellow-rumped Flycatcher, 3 Asian Brown Flycatcher, 4 Black-naped Oriole, Eastern Crowned Warbler and an Arctic Warbler. Winter visitors present included 3 Common Kingfisher, 5 Brown Shrikes, 3 Eastern Stonechat, 6 Dusky Warbler an 2 Black-browed Reed Warbler.

Also recorded were 250 Oriental Pratincole, 50 Baya Weaver, 2 Stork-billed Kingfisher, 2 Vineous-breasted Starling and 2 Freckled-breasted Woodpeckers. Along with the usual egrets, Open-billed Storks etc.
