January is one of the nicest months to enjoy birds around Chiang Dao Hut. Cool mornings and comfortable temperatures make it a pleasant time to walk around the garden, sit quietly with a cup of coffee, or spend some time watching birds.
During the cool season, we can see both birds that live around Chiang Dao throughout the year and seasonal visitors that come to Northern Thailand during the winter.
