WANTED: Japanese Yellow Bunting
Japanese Yellow Bunting (IUCN Vulnerable) is scarce and irregular spring passage migrant. Besides Deep Bay area, Long Valley is one of its favourite sites. However, the last Japanese Yellow Bunting recorded in Long Valley was on 19 Apr 2006, which is almost 5 years ago. Since bird survey is conducted once a week, we would like to hold an activity “WANTED: Japanese Yellow Bunting” this spring. Hope to have more manpower to look for this bird in Long Valley.
According to Avifauna of Hong Kong, past Japanese Yellow Bunting records are between 27 March to 28 April and the peak appears in first two weeks of April. Bird watchers and photographers are encouraged to go Long Valley more frequent during late March to late April. If you have found the Bunting, please try to take a photo on the bird and record down the habitat (either photo or word), so that we can know more about their habitat preference in Long Valley. And please remember to report the sighting in this forum. Of course, all birding reports in Long Valley are welcome!
Please note that when you’re birding or photographing in Long Valley, please behave yourselves and respect local residents, farmers, their crops and belongings. For the Important Note for Birding in Long Valley, please visit: http://www.hkbws.org.hk/BBS/view ... &extra=page%3D1
謝謝提醒.
如果各位之前有在塱原拍得這種鳥, 都可以post上來討論區, 以填補以往空白了的資料。謝謝!!
If you have taken photo of this species in the past, please do post to the forum to fill the previous data gap. Thank you! Author: HKBWS Vicky Time: 29/03/2011 10:03
Two Japanese Yellow Bunting were recorded in Long Valley yesterday (28 Mar).

The spring migration of Japanese Yellow Bunting has come to an end. We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to all bird watchers and photographers in participating the Japanese Yellow Bunting campaign. This campaign not only collected records of the species but also filled the data gap in the past years. This showed that our regular survey is insufficient for recording this kind of migratory species. We need all your help in the future recording bird species that are uncommon in Long Valley. Please do not hesitate to report your sightings in the BBS. All records are important!! Thank you so much!!
