House Crow Corvus splendens is not recorded in Birds of South East Asia by Craig Robson. I am happy with the identification of this bird however which is introduced or ship-assisted in many countries being something of a pest in Africa where huge numbers can be seen along the east coast in places such as Dar Es Salaam in Tanzania.

See Suan Rot Fai for further details of this good birding and general wildlife location. It is a hidden gem close to the chaos and confusion of Chatuchak Market.
