Birdwatching in Bhutan 1 (16 - 19 April, 2017)

During the four days, it was very lucky for me without rainfall.  However, birds were generally quiet.  Highlights during the trip were flock of Fire-tailed Myzornis in Thrumshing La and two Long-billed Wren-Babblers.

Rufous-necked Hornbills were seen well in Yongkhola on 18 April.
