Phichit,Thailand.a gallery of birds found in and around the areas paddyfields

my final destination on my Thailand tour is my wifes hometown of Phichit in central Thailand,a very large centre for rice growing with paddyfields the dominant feature on the landscape.for a lover of waterbirds this place is paradise and ive spent three days criss-crossing the fields in a 4WD gathering photo references.these are just some of the birds I encountered.
