An endemic race of the Green-tailed Sunbird completely confined to the summit of Doi Inthanon.

The Green-tailed Sunbird’s species name is technically accurate, but the male’s bright greenish-blue head is much more noticeable than his tail. Also note his red upper back and bright yellow underparts. The female is olive-yellow with paler underparts and a greyish head. Note the lack of a strongly contrasting pale rump patch as compared to female Mrs. Gould’s Sunbird. The Green-tailed inhabits montane and hill forests and forest edge.

The Mountain Bamboo Partridge is an intricately patterned partridge of various scrubby habitats; not restricted to bamboo thickets. Their body is brown with black spots and gray streaks all over while the face is paler with a thick black line through the eye. They are usually seen singly or in pairs often foraging under cover but will venture out into the open at dawn. They are less tied to extensively thick cover than many small partridges.

The Spot-breasted Parrotbill (Paradoxornis guttaticollis) is a species of bird in the Paradoxornithidae family. It is a bulbous-headed brown bird with a comically large pale yellow bill which is oddly twisted, making it seem as if the bird is smiling.

The bird as you can see is brownish overall, with a rich chestnut cap and paler underparts. Its face is liberally splattered with black splotches, the largest patch on the ear where it forms a thick crescent.
