Thailand is full of a myriad of flora and fauna, interesting flowers, and colorful birds. Our guide, Pip Pip, was good enough (and patient enough) to teach us many different varieties.



As many birds as we saw, we only got a decent photographs of a few. Many were beautiful but just too far away, like the oriental honey buzzard, Asian open bill stork, and coppersmith barbet.
But we did manage to see Oriental Pie hornbill, such an interesting bird, and Orange breasted trogan.



As much as I enjoyed the wide variety of amazing birds, I was really thrilled to see and photographically capture large mammals, like elephants, not in captivity, but in the wild, and Asian sun bear.





We saw a variety of monkeys, including gibbons, long tailed macaque, and dusky langur’s.





While I would have loved to see more, I guess that would be greedy, as we were very fortunate to see what we saw.
I can’t thank our guide, Pip Pip, enough for his time, patience, and inspiration for teaching us and showing us these magnificent creatures. We had such an amazing time and saw so many fantastic sights.

Great pics and I especially love the sleeping monkey. Great shot. I know you had a great trip.
