Bang Poo is in Samut Prakarn province,Thailand.It is owned and managed by the Thai military and a place to go bird watching.It is scrappy area of offices, ponds, mudflats, mangroves and wasteland where locals go for a picnic,to feed the gulls and to dine at the restaurant.Amazing number of birds can be seen, particularly during migration.The best time for bird watching is between October and April.Two to three thousand Brown-headed Gulls are normally seen at Bang Poo with small numbers of Black-headed Gulls nearly always present within the flock. This large gull flock is easily observed, with many locals feeding the birds scraps of food, and it is worth checking for less common species; Slender-billed Gull is usually annual here as are Heuglin`s Gull; most of the gull rarities from Thailand have been recorded here including Little Gull, Mew Gull and Sooty Gull while other rarities are likely in the future.
