Hello, This is my first time posting, so I am not sure I am posting in the proper place.

I am from the States, and I am on sabbatical in Shenzhen for the year. I recently joined the HKBWS, and I thoroughly enjoyed an outing to Mai Po.

I only speak English, so I was unable to speak with the guide. I am wondering if you all might be able to help me figure out where to go to see the following:

I would love to see a spoon-billed sandpiper, but is that even possible these days? I am also very interested in Migratory birds such as the Great White Pelican, and any type of Stork, Owl, and Crane.

ANY suggestions, advice or tips would be most welcome.
Thank you,
Laura Feuerborn

I have to add that it is heartbreaking to read about the decline in the numbers of bird species. I experienced this back in the States, but the situation here appears even more alarming. I feel so helpless!
