KOH KER

With Koh Ker, we visit Remote Temples & Birding at Dry Dipterocarp Forest. This trip offers a chance to combine seeing the remote temple Koh Ker with birdwatching in the dry Dipterocarp forest for the White-rumped Pygmy Falcon and many more. These ancient temples are set in a semi-green forest, which is a natural habitat for bird and wildlife. This forest walk will take us to the Koh Ker the pyramid temple and many other temples in the area.

Koh Ker Birds & Tour
We will be on the lookout for the White-rumped Pygmy-falcon, Rufous-winged Buzzard, Collared Falconet, Indochinese Bushlark, Velvet-fronted and Neglected Nuthatch, Hainan Blue Flycatcher, White-throated Rock Thrush and 8 species of woodpeckers. Over 150 bird species have been recorded in this area, while about 60 of them are often seen during a day trip. See Koh Ker Beng Mealea birds
