Glaucous Gull - we had one bird from Mai Po boardwalk last year.
Kinni and Thomas - please help us with submitting your photos! thanks!
Bulwer's Petrel - include the species which is not fully accepted in the Avifauna of HK? If so, we need to collect photos of several tens or a hundred more species. I don't agree on it. Author: HFCheung Time: 3/02/2009 21:44
Thank, Tung.
Would Kinni and Thomas please submit your best photo on Glaucous Gull. If you have already sumbitted them, please ignor this message.
In the end, if the bird in photo cannot be identified, then it could not be included in the photoguide.
