|~|~| Pattaya, Thailand - February 7, 2023 - Wat Chaimongkol Wat Phra Aaramluang

Near where I am staying is Wat Chaimonkol, a designated Royal Monastery and and beautiful place. 

Hitting the bell which calls the monks to prayer 


I actually was approached by the a monk and we had a short conversation as he asked me where I was from and what I thought of Thailand. As well, he was interested in how cold it was in Canada !

Yellow-vented Bulbil I believe …
