MORNING
Dalat city is a very comfortable base from which to explore the nearby forest areas of the Da Lat/Lang Biang Plateau. In DaLat Tour 2 Days 1 Night : Bird Watching, we will explore DaLat which is very different.
The plateau holds a number of local species, some of which are only found there, or are only shared with a small area of Cambodia or Laos.
We will begin our exploration of this fascinating area with a foray down to the Tung Na Valley, made famous in the nineties for the rediscovery of the Vietnamese endemic Gray-crowned Crocias, which remains regularly seen there.
Any passing “bird wave” will be scoured for this bird hiding within.
Tung Na will also provide a further chance at Orange-breasted Laughingthrush, as well as other local species, like White-cheeked Laughingthrush and Indochinese Green Magpie.
Other birds we will be seeking at Tung Na will include Black-headed and Rufous-backed Sibias, the local (soon-to-be-split?) race of Black-throated Sunbird, Mrs. Gould’s Sunbird, Streaked Spiderhunter, White-spectacled Warbler, and Red-billed Scimitar-Babbler.
AFTERNOON
In the afternoon, we will head out from our hotel to another very local site, Tuyen Lam lake, a scenic lake surrounded by pine woodland, which holds the possibility of Vietnamese Greenfinch, the endemic race (species?) of Red Crossbill, Slender-billed Oriole, Chestnut-vented Nuthatch, Burmese Shrike, and Black-collared Starling.
Back to DaLat City, you rest and then have dinner at the restaurant. Enjoy premier services in a hotel 4 stars at DaLat and rest here.
You can walk around DaLat Night Market in the centre city, enjoy some DaLat's cuisine and street food of city. Walk to Lam Vien Square, sight-see poetic Xuan Huong Lake, you can exchange and talk to local people and tourists here.
Have buffet breakfast at hotel. Continue your trip in the second day of DaLat Tour 2 Days : Bird Watching with the first place is LangBiang Mount.
Langbiang is the highest peak in the area, with one of its two peaks reaching 2169m, which is clearly visible on clear days looming above the city of Da Lat.
The lower flanks are cloaked in pine forest, with the upper flanks giving way to mixed evergreen forest.
Both of these forests hold key species for the tour, and after taking a jeep to the trailhead we will work our way up through Bidoup Nui Ba National Park, keep an eye out for Red Crossbill, Large Cuckooshrike, and the endemics Vietnamese Greenfinch and Vietnamese Cutia, before we emerge into the denser mixed evergreen forest on the upper slopes, which we will search for the notoriously elusive Collared Laughingthrush, a species which is endemic to the plateau.
Other targets on the mountain include Golden-throated Barbet, Pygmy Cupwing, Clicking and Dalat Shrike-Babblers, Black-crowned Fulvetta, and Gray-bellied Tesia.
Have lunch with specialities of DaLat City.
