Birdwatching in Bhutan 1 (17-26 April, 2014)

This year, climate was so dry.  Very little rain was good for photographing birds but wasn't so nice in the agricultural country.

Birdwatching in Bhutan: Bhumthang - Thrumsing La - Sengor - Yongkhala (April 6, 2012)

Although the weather was so cold and mainly rainy, it was the greatest birding day among the trip.  Glad to see calling Satyr Tragopans including 3 males,  four pair of Blood Pheasants and a male Rufous-necked Hornbill.
