Here are some from Chiang Mai. Just driving around and found this guy and the Barbet in the same tree. Set a blind and got these shots.

Beautiful. That's the one area of Thailand I never got to visit. Have heard it's beautiful there.

Lovely captures of some most interesting looking birds Gary.
It's nice to see the bee eater lived up to his name for you in that one capture.
