Many apologies for my poor education and feeble mental functions;but I can't read Chinese - so please excuse me if I have misinterpreted the last message. The only bit I managed to understand was the 'Bengal Bushlark [Mirafra assamica]' bit!
Wouldn't it be nice if the HKBWS society had a bit of software or could point us to a website which could easily translate between English and Chinese and vice -versa? Really would go along way towards improving communication on this site.
I realise there have been a lot of splits in Sri Lanka over the last decade, and I can't put my hand on the 'Ceylon Bird Guide' ( I think my Dad's nicked it!)- but I didn't realise the Bushlark was one of them.In fact looking at this website
http://www.ceylonbirdclub.org/th ... ae%20%20&id=180
- it doesn't clarify the nomenclature any further!
With kind regards
