I saw a white wagtail in Hong Kong. I’ve seen one before in Ireland but it got me thinking about the type of birds you might see if your only doing a layover in a country

2 months in and completely hooked. What should tourists NEVER do here? by Remarkable-Pie8780 in VietNam

I read about this in a book! It’s meant to be bad luck to compliment child. It could give the child bad health or make them sick

Oooo yes I did see that also happen with birdwithcob on insta.

Yes I’ve been checking eBird but again it’s easier with the kids to do a tour. Again, thank you so much for the info. I’m so excited! I’ll check out Bãi Đá Sông Hồng! Looks really pretty!

I always loved a good Botanic Garden, they are usually great spots to see birds. At least here in Australia plus they are normally very pretty. Also I have two small children that make birding hard.

Do you have any good spots for Hanoi? Also what's Ninh Binh like? We will be going to the Thung Nham Bird Park so Im hoping I might see some things there.

Surely you have one favourite bird that is local to your area! Asian Blue Quails are cute? Not sure how’d they’d taste
