Just wonder why you can find such number of birds. Especially the Orange-headed thrush!!

I was there this morning but only found a female Black-naped Monarch. No thrushes can be find.

Author: 星魚 Time: 27/09/2015 19:11

Wow! Congratulations Coconutcat! I just wait to see her this season! This is a very good news she come back again!
You can find all the slope over there! Maybe some great bird there! You can make it! Wait for your next surprise;)! Congrats again;)

I always pay attention to see whether there are birds on the slopes. But most of the time seems nothing happened...@@

For the thrushes, is there any technique to help us easier to find them?

Author: 星魚 Time: 28/09/2015 10:42

The Thrushs Like the shaded area! Especially under the tree have a big leave! Recently, there always have a Blue Whistling thrush at there, and stay steadily, you can walk very close and he even ignore you! But Orange-Headed Thrush will be more alert, it's always hide behind the branches and sheltered by the leave, if he feels successful hide, he will not move and have a long stay! the site it stays seen not very stable! But it's still there!
You can walk the slope face 何文田廣場/綺文樓！ hope hearing the good news from you;)

You are very lucky!! You found the thrushes again!!

I went to the slope face to 何文田廣場/綺文樓 last Thursday afternoon (10-1-2015) and tried to find the thrushes. But there is very quiet and no birds at all...@@. The same situation happened at the football field and the slope beside it. May be I went there at wrong time...

Hi Louis & 星魚,

I work at Ho Man Tin and always hear lots of birds around. I just saw few Red-billed Blue Magpie when I was having a fire drill yesterday

. Plan to go birding next week during lunch time near the reservoir.
Hope I could spot something and tell you all here

Hi 星魚,

I am the one who recorded a bird sound and asked you for ID on last Saturday at Mai Po Car Park. Not sure if you still remember

Hope to see you around at Ho Man Tin.
