You nailed the fascination of Phetchaburi (city/province) for birders with this magnificent capture. I spent many many hours/days there (including the provinces of Samut Songkhram/Samut Sakhon). Almost countless salt and fish/shrimp farms and the coast/mangroves are perfect wintering grounds for wading birds.
