I must admit that this time I was lucky. We were awaiting thrushes when suddenly a pitta appeared slowly approaching us. This tiny bird (with a weight up to 120 grams) lives at the bottom of a forest searching for food in the forest cover. It lives in Thailand, Burma, Vietnam and Malaysia. Pittas belong to skittish birds, but this one was an exception. It would not escape even when any of the photographers left their position and stepped aside.  The pitta remained still and would not get scared. I’s a pity that the place where we were taking photos at was very shady. Despite very intense sunlight, ISO 1600, times were not shorter than 1/250, and from time to time the sunlight would make them shorter for a while but the contrasts created then did not allow me to take good pictures. Nevertheless,  there weren’t many such fruitful encounters with birds in Thailand as I had with the pitta, so I have created this gallery.
