***********

今年本會更希望藉此活動為內地的鳥類保育工作籌募經費,由於中國經濟急劇發展,使部份適合鳥類生存的生境備受破壞,一些瀕危甚至極危的鳥種更有滅絕的危險。本會正籌備以下兩個項目:

1.        保育中國江西省婺源的「靛冠噪鶥」(黃喉噪鶥)

跟據IUCN紅色名錄,靛冠噪鶥這中國特有種已被評估為極危鳥種,估計其族群總數不超過250隻。靛冠噪鶥源於江西婺源及雲南思茅,經過多年的資料搜集, 在2000年於婺源發現其繁殖族群。牠們現正面臨各種的危機,包括頻繁的捕獵活動、生境備受破壞及缺乏法律保護等。

由於我們對這鳥種所知不多,故需要資源增加調查研究從而為牠制定保育措施,以消除其絕種的危機。

2.        保育中國東北的「中華秋沙鴨」 (吉林省長白山地區、鴨綠江流域及黑龍江省)

跟據IUCN紅色名錄,中華秋沙鴨被評估為瀕危鳥種,估計其族群總數在1000至2500隻之間,在過去的40年間牠的族群數量一直在下降中。中華秋沙鴨是遷徙鳥,每年於中、韓、俄的邊境地繁殖,而中國中南部(江西及福建)便是牠們的主要越冬地。牠們正面臨生境受破壞、非法捕獵及人為干擾等危機。

我們需要資源在繁殖地設置人造巢箱,補償繁殖地生境受破壞對此瀕危鳥種的影響。



Taking the opportunity of this competition, the Society would like to raise fund for selected bird conservation works in China.  As a result of rapid economic development in China, damage and even loss of habitats for birds has threatened the survival of many species.  Some endangered or critically endangered species are put at risk of extinction if nothing is done.  The Society is planning for 2 conservation works that need your help:  

Conservation of “Blue-crowned Laughingthrush” at Wuyuan, Jiangxi   

The Blue-crowned Laughingthrush (Garrulax courtoisi) is a critically endangered species in the IUCN Red List and is endemic to China. The total population is estimated at less than 250 individuals. The historical distribution of this species was in Wuyuan County, Jiangxi Province and Simao Yunnan. After years of searching, a breeding population was rediscovered in 2000 in Wuyuan. The bird is now facing the threats of heavy trapping, habitat loss and lack of legal protection. We do not have much information about the bird and there is a concern of losing its population in the wild, so conservation action in needed for this unique bird in China.  

Resources for more surveys are needed to reveal the secrets of this critically endangered specie so that conservation works can be identified.     

Conservation of “Scaly-sided Merganser” in northeast China

The Scaly-sided Merganser (Mergus squamatus) is an endangered species in the IUCN Red List. The remaining population is estimated to contain about 1,000-2,500 individuals. In the last 40 years, the population keeps declining. Being a migratory species, Scaly-sided Merganser breeds in regions at Chinese-Korean-Russian border each year, and the majority of the birds spend the winter in central and southern China (Jiangxi and Fujian). They are now facing the threats of habitat loss, illegal hunting and human disturbances.

Resources are needed to facilitate artificial nest box for this endangered specie to compensate the habitat loss at its main breeding site.
