See the Crane in Sanam Bin Reservoir, Prakhon Chai Buriram

[Prakhonchai Nick]

there's a Buriram Bird Park just north of the Reservior:

It is run down and not used much, but there are some places to stay.  I was not impressed on my visit there. 

It used to be a nice place to go, but now much of it is fenced off, and the birds are on the reservoir and not in the park.

The accommodation is largely used as short-time overnight rooms for trysts with a romantic background by the local Thais.

There are no wild cranes in Buriram or Surin, not real ones, anyway.  The white birds are egrets, and the big black and white ones which have been around these few months are storks, Asian Openbills.  The Sarus Crane has been bred in captivity somewhere in Buriram, though, and the birds are free-flying (grey, with a red patch on the head).
