Hello, hello, hello
Here is my second post about the birds I managed to spot and photograph in Thailand.
If you missed the first part - here is the link.
Today I will start with the humble zebra dove, called also barred ground dove, or barred dove in short. This bird was not new for me. During my first visit in Thailand, I saw plenty of them and I loved their soft coo. Not surprisingly there were plenty of them everywhere.
It was an extremely hot April in Thailand. If I had to trust my phone app, the temperature during day reached 40°C, which means it was much higher and I felt like I am in an oven. That is why my short photo shooting took place early in the morning. Not that it made a big difference, it was still hot. I sat on a bencn under a tree and heard nice song from above.
Google Lens suggested this beautiful yellow bird to be Common Iora. Very attractive birdie with lovely melodic voice.
Next, I saw another bird close by. It was standing with open beak, but no, it was not singing. My guesses were, the bird was hot and bothered. I searched again with Google Lens and it appeared to be a bulbul, even more precisely a Streak-eared Bulbul. Hope I did the id correct.
And that's all I found in a short time in the garden of the house where the kids are living. I can imagine what I could see if I had more time to visit other places. But for now, that's all.
Happy birding and keep on sharing your photos and stories in our community of Feathered Friends.
