TRIP UPDATES -
Thailand - January 9-23, 2011
We have 8 spots filled (including 5 photographers) and have 2 spots open for this wonderful tour. Take in the wildlife, birds, culture and cuisine of Northern and Central Thailand with us. This is the best time of year for birds in Northern Thailand as the winter visitors are down from Northern Asia and the weather is usually dry and sunny at this time of year. To see the details of the itinerary please view www.trogontours.net/thailand . To see some of Nate's photos from our fun and successful tour there in January of 2009, please see www.trogontours.net/thailandgallery .
