Collared Falconets occur on the lower slopes of Doi Inthanon and often perch up on high exposed branches, often in small groups
The striking and personable Spectacled Barwing is numerous rather numerous at middle elevations on Doi Inthanon.
Bronzed (a pair shown here) along with Lesser Racket-tailed Drongos occur together at middle elevations on Doi Inthanon.
A few beautiful White-capped Redstarts are found along rushing streams in northern Thailand such as here on Doi Inthanon.

The Chestnut Thrush is a beautiful and rare winter visitor from China to northern Thailand. This one was at the army checkpoint on Doi Lang.
Also on Doi Lang was a Red-faced Liocichla, a scarce resident of extreme northern Thailand, and one of the more spectacular babbler species.
Sometimes it is easy to figure out how a species got its English name!
