CAMBODIA BIRD WATCHING - CAMBODIA BIRDING TOUR
Cambodia Cycling provides professional bird watching tour
accompanied by experienced bird watching guide with bird list. Prek
Toal is one of the biggest bird sanctuary: Milky Storkhttp://www.nttcam.com/index.php?reg=30 (10 pairs),
Painted Stork (100 pairs), Asian Open Bill (1500 pairs), Lesser Adjutant (40
pairs), Greater Adjutant (30 pairs), Spot-billed Pelicans (700 pairs),
Black-head Ibis (200 pairs), Glossy Ibis (50 pairs), Grey-head Fish-Eagle (15
pairs), Masked Fin-foot (10 pairs). A full day boat trip is
recommended. Ang Trapeng Thmor is the best place for
watching Sarus Crane. Tmart Boey is the north plain village
for Ibis. Surrounding the Tonle Sap Great Lake are natural grasslands, which
flood annually with the rise and fall of the Mekong river. This unique habitat
is highly threatened by conversion to agriculture. It also supports globally
significant breeding populations of the endangered Bengal Florican – the only
such site in South-east Asia. Other birds present include several large
waterbird species, wintering Manchurian Reed Warblers and Greater Spotted
Eagles, and Oriental Plovers, which are reliable passage migrants in March.
