🦜 Birdwatching Thailand - Chiang Mai 🦅

Come with me around Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand.. as we check out some of the local bird activity to be found in a typical month of May.

[@michaelparker4332]

I’ve seen many of these birds round Phi Mai it’s nice to know what are now thank you. And I’m especially glad someone asked the Asian Kaul sound in the background. When I’ve asked all I get told is Nok 😀

[@WildVision_1]

haha.. yes, nok is simply the Thai word for 'bird'

[@camnature1147]

I love the common birds too. 💕

[@werffjvander]

1:57 My most favorite bird the Kawau also as Common Koel.The best and most beautiful alarm clock you can imagine

[@thailandwild4897]

Well done... some excellent footage. This is very helpful for me for working on my bird knowledge, particularly with the species where you captured the call in the shot.

[@camnature1147]

Yes, it is so beautiful.

[@monicaenriquez8643]

Beautiful birds!

[@douglasstemke2444]

Thank you! I really loved the way you did this. It gives you a few moments to try and identify the bird before you passed along the identity. Very educational.

[@actievandorp4966]

Wat een prachtige film,ik heb er van genoten! Hartelijk dank.

[@subathrakanagaraj9911]

[@lukerobinson2605]

05:30 lol at the woodpecker drumming on the scaffolding. My parents live not far from Chiang Mai, so I love looking for bird life whenever I visit them.

[@heyyzb.5937]

And i like those birds that are in all counties!!!

[@spizzenergi2292]

The bittern is a great find.

[@goatribs3]

hi! what is that bird heard in the background at 2:22? the descending whistles that ends in a rapid descent

[@corydorascatfish]

What are the birds in the background of 2:02 that are going "pawow?" Nice video! :)

[@WildVision_1]

corydorascatfish thanks . . . that is an Asian Koel calling in the background.

[@bylauh8245]

Sound of Bird? 0:19 0:20??

[@amandacristopher7432]

[@WildVision_1]

[@siriwatsubviboon4418]

Oh

[@technomad900]

@wildvision What is the name of the bird with the whisle starts at 2:10

[@WildVision_1]

Asian Koel, a member of the cuckoo family.. they're very common in Thailand. Thanks for asking.

[@jean-paulkurtzemann777]

les oiseaux sont superbes avec leurs couleurs et leurs chants il faut les protéger car certaines espèces sont menacé d'extinction entendre leur chants de bonne heure le matin c'est génial et il faut les nourrir durant l'hiver car les plus faibles meurent sans nourritures prenons conscience de cela nous avons besoin d'eux mais ils ont besoin de nous cela va dans les deux sens

[@mdwaseemkhanwaseemkhan6851]

Same Indian birds

[@bfoz]

How are the birds in Thailand different? And how are they the same?

[@WildVision_1]

same same... but different. ;-)

[@michaellaudahn]

Great video. Must be hard to catch them, because none of the 'noble birds' (so no sparrows or mynas meant) will come to the ground where people are. Yet there was a 'flaw': You documented acoustically a very common bird - you can hear it several times throughout the clip, clearest between 1.55 and 2.15. Yet you didn't show (nor id'ed) it. Real pity.

[@WildVision_1]

thank you for the comment Michael, yes that bird you hear between those times is an Asian Koel (a very common member of the cuckoo family found all over Thailand). They are easily heard, but often shy to actually see.

[@michaellaudahn]

@@WildVision_1 Yes, YTing for asian coel, I found another clip, and that seems to be him! Thanks a lot. Where do you have this amazing knowledge from?

[@WildVision_1]

@@michaellaudahn thank you, birds and birdwatching in Thailand is something i have been studying for almost 15 years

[@michaellaudahn]

Have you seen kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3XaeXdjjrigjsU Is there anything we expats realistically can do when we meet 'releasers' - other than looking disapprovingly and maybe adding, 'no good' (and unless it's a grown-up, vicious looking man)?

[@WildVision_1]

@@michaellaudahn i hate to see these captives birds, and yes that occurs all over Thailand. It's a catch 22 situation.. i want to release them purely for the birds well being, not mine. But i know if i do release them, it feeds the trade and it continues. Its exploitation of the birds for money, simple as that.
