Red-faced Liocichla, Doi Ang Khang ©James Eaton/Birdtour Asia
Rising early we were greeted by thick mist and a strong northerly wind from China, not what we were hoping for! In spite of the weather birding along the road produced several large feeding flocks, largely consisting of the previous day’s core species and included yet another sighting of a rather more skulking Red-faced Liocichla. Many of the roadside trees were in flower, attracting Mrs Gould’s & Black-throated Sunbirds which dazzled even in the early morning mist, as large flocks of white-eyes moved quickly through and a variety of bulbuls, Black-backed Sibia and Orange-bellied Leafbirds fed lazily just above our heads. As the mist slowly began to clear we moved from the road to the trails which cut through the open forest. An Asian Stubtail was the first bird found as it moved off the trail in front of us, shortly followed by a skittish pair of Mountain Bamboo-Partridge. The rest of the morning produced pleasant birding, feeding flocks were regularly nearby and many produced something new; White-browed Scimitar-babblers were becoming more regular and a male Small Niltava showed well in a lush gulley but calling Rufous-throated Partridges refused to show. Scanning the flowering trees that surrounded our lodges gave us nice views of Olive-backed Pipit, many Red-whiskered and Himalayan Black Bulbuls and yet more Mrs Gould’s Sunbirds, while a White-capped Water-Redstart was a surprise find as we tucked into an al fresco lunch.
