An afternoon visit to my uncle's new house given us a big suprise!! We have no binoc with us but only our telescope.

The walk include a little lake with mangroves and reedbed which attracted many species of birds, the path lead to fields and a small patch of woodland. It is a good environment and should produce some good records if surveyed regularly in the future.

A total of 25 species was seen today in a short walk around the area.

Species today:

Yellow Bittern x1(Was very suprise to see one at this time of the year.)
Besra x1
Common Kingfisher

Black-Winged Cuckoo-Shrike x1
Sooty-Headed Bulbul
