[Oversea] Khao Yai - January 2012

Khao Yai - January 2012

Birds from a recent (hiking / non-birding) trip to Khao Yai National Park
Total bird list about 95 species in four days. No clear view of Ground Cuckoo and Pheasants for ticking and no sight/hearing of pittas, which is a bit disappointing.
If you want more information on the birding spots, thailandbirding provides good online information, but you can find birds almost anywhere. For more details, you can pm me. If you don't agree with the id, please let me know

I follow this post with some suspicious ids (please help confirm...). Warblers are particular numerous in Khao Yai and hard to distinguish without a bird guide. Just managed a few shots, which may not be sufficient for some ids :-(

Thanks a lot in advance
1- Chinese Leaf Warbler (this one was hanging low in shrubs along a river bank)?


2- Swift ?


3- Blue-and-white Flycatcher female?




4- Sunbird ?




5- Pigeon ?


6- Hawk-Eagle?


7- Warbler?


8- Minivet?


9- Bulbul?


10- Ashy Drongo?


11- Warbler?


12- Ultramarine Flycatcher?


13- Warbler?






14- Warbler?


15- Warbler?




16- Warbler?




17- Warbler?


18- Fire-breasted Flowerpecker female?


19- Arctic Warbler?

Got confused on the Rock Thrush in my files :-( White-throated it is.
Koel, what makes you think the Crow-billed is actually an Ashy? I agree that the bill is a bit dubious for a Crow-billed, but the tail is clearly much less pointed than Ashy and the general physionomy is not as slender.
For 3 and 12, you gave the other names I was thinking of... So will go with your choice.
