Just outside Chiang Dao, at the bottom of the road leading to Meuang Khong. In the sandy area around the checkpoint I have regularly found 60 species or more in a morning- and I&#8217;ve missed loads. These are some pictures I took last week- no rarities but nice to see so many species.<\/p>\n<!-- index.php -->\n<div\n\tclass=\"ngg-galleryoverview
