specialty Spot-throated Babbler followed by the sighting of the Rufous-necked Laughingthrush, and then the Great Tit above our heads chirping to glory and far down as we reached en catchment water bed were two White-breasted Waterhen demonstrating on a rock to disappear as they sighted us but not until we had some great views not to forget the screeching of the White-throated Kingfisher not happy because we were intruding into his territory .

- Spot-throated Babblers on two occasions. - A flock of 6 Striated Bulbuls giving clear views. - Lots of Blue-winged Minlas and Verditer Flycatchers. - No Crested Finchbills and only a short glimpse of Red-faced Liochicla. We stayed at KhangVilla which is a good alternative to the much more upscale Amari Nature resort. Look for their sign above the roof tops in the village.We decided to take the longer mountain road back to CM. More

Spot-throated babbler led us to eventually get good if brief views of it and we flushed a Mountain Bamboo Partridge as we exited the trail. A breakfast/lunch in the village led us to walk the trail running through farmland from Ban Khoom towards Ban Luang whilst the rain was on the higher ground. It was very muddy and slippery but we found some nice species: White-browed Laughingthrush, Long-tailed Shrike, Plain Sunbird as well as many bulbuls, Verditer Flycatchers and Blue-throated Barbets.
