Pak Ta Lay is a site for watching birds near Lam Pak Bia . Most area are salt farms.

White - winged Black Tern , and  Whiskered Tern in breeding plumage.

     1 May 2004, I went watching birds at Pak Ta Lay . at this time , it is the end of nonbreeding
season in Thailand . I found a few shorebirds but it had many terns , large flock of Whiskered Tern , 
2 Caspian Terns , and 1 White - winged Black Tern in breeding plumage .

very long distance and strong wind , I could not take a good photo.

Although I found a few shorebirds , I was exicited by a Dunlin , a very rare visitor of Thailand.
It was in breeding plumage. I found it feeding food near small group of Marsh Sandpipers .
