Now in Thailand is very dry and hot, if you can find a pond in the jungle like this one. The diameter of this pond is 2 1/2 feet that is enough for all the birds come to take a shower from dawn untill dusk. Just stay in the blind and waiting. This week I will present the birds in the the pond. Please comment.

In Thailand we give the nickname for this bird as "The Helmet" as the black color on the head looks like helmet, you guys agree? See you next Wednasday with the new ones because I can post only 3 times a week.

I'd like to take my kid to this park on every Sunday morning, close to my home just 10 mins drive. I always take my gears with me. Perhaps, I may see something that unpredictable like this time. I found the nest of Small Minivet as in the picture, the male is feeding some food to the female then pass to the babies underneath her. The sun is quite strong and the female has to sit over the babies to aviod from the suuny as the shade, real cool! 3 babies are in the nest, you will see on baby on the left of her body.
