Where did you take this photo - I have never managed to see this species on two trips to Thailand and one to Yunnan where it was in range.

Thanks

Hi Mike,

I could give you an answer this time! Hendrix went with Ho-fai to Baifalin, Gaoligong Shan, Yunnan during the Easter holiday. They are really lucky to see this bird just standing on the road before dusk. Mike Kilburn also saw one in almost same situation last year (perhaps the same individual - same site, almost same time of the year!).

So, I think it is worthwhile to try this site for this species in spring. I also heard some information of this species from Guangxi which claimed that is not particularly difficult.

Thanks Tung

I did some checking on Baifalin - looks like a good site.

Next year perhaps?

Mike
