[Oversea] Busan South Korea

Busan South Korea

Hi there,

A trip report from Busan (south of South Korea) in February 2010 (1day and a half). If you are interested in the area (Nakdong estuary), p.m. for more details. One of the best sites in South Korea for bird observation at almost any time of the year. Unfortunately, in terms of rare species, didn't see any crane, sea-eagle or "special" geese. But saw a Baikal Teal, which I am pretty excited about...

Enjoy

And the waterbirds now...
