Mr. Geoff Carey has lived in Hong Kong since 1987. He has served on the Records Committee of the Hong Kong Bird Watching Society for 30 years, and has been Chairman for much of this time. He was key in developing the methodology for the Mai Po Inner Deep Bay Ramsar Site Waterbird Monitoring Programme in the 1990s, which has provided much useful data regarding waterbird populations in the Deep Bay wetlands and has affirmed their local and regional importance.
Geoff was co-author/editor of The Avifauna of Hong Kong, a past editor of the Hong Kong Bird Report, which he helped develop into a journal of regional relevance and to which he still contributes, a contributor to Ecology of the Birds of Hong Kong, and was an editor and co-author of A Biodiversity Review of China.
