Thanks for your video report! We have visited Nam Sang Wai again recently, the second fire on 1st Jan is very close to a known roosting site for Great Cormorants. I am not sure how large the impact is the fire damage on roosting cormorants, but seems cormorants do not like the burnt areas much.

感謝報告!! 我們近日再到訪南生圍視察, 發現一月一日山火非常接近一片鸕鷀夜棲的林木。 暫時未清楚對牠們實際影響有多大,不過發現似乎牠們不太喜歡燒過的地方。

南生圍的桉樹是比較耐火的, 即使樹桿變燒通心亦仍然可以生長, 不過視察時發覺也有樹木倒下, 所以提醒一下會員注意。

其他樹木的問題有時很難用肉眼辨識, 不過亦有跡可尋, 例如有樹洞、嚴重傾斜、有大量枯枝等等, 可參閱發展局護樹報告(http://www.trees.gov.hk/TC/doc/TreeCareReport2010_0820.pdf)當中提及的各點。


The Eucalyptus Trees are rather Fire-resistant and It can still survive with burnt centre. However we found some fallen trees after the fire last year so It is better to remind members of the issues.

It is sometimes difficult to spot a dangerous tree in other places, but you may be able to find problems like big tree hole, leaning, lots of dead brances etc, you may refer to the Tree Care Report from Development Bureau. (http://www.trees.gov.hk/TC/doc/TreeCareReport2010_0820.pdf)

香港觀鳥會於2011年1月25日收到元朗地政處回覆，當局將會在政府土地重新植草，及已經建議私人土地持有人進行相關補救工作。
The HKBWS received reply from Yuen Long Lands Office on 25 Jan 2011. The office said they will carry out hydro-seeding on the affected Government Land, and they have advised the private land owner to carry out remedial actions.

根據恆基方面回覆，「防火帶」包括在樹邊及行人路邊清除雜草，稱可減低一旦山火發生時的火勢蔓延速度及對樹木的影響。
According to Henderson's Reply, the "firebreaks" would be done by clearing weeds along path and around trees and thus reduce impacts of fire.
