A new species recently discovered in Cambodia was announced this week. You can read about the "Cambodian Tailorbird" here:

Amazing that a new bird species can be found in and near a large urban area!

Very unusual in today's age that the bird hadn't been discovered before. Maybe with this discovery we will get a new North American species called the Trillian Flummoxbird.

Amazing!  I'll hazard a guess that birding is not a popular pastime in Cambodia.
