Po Toi April 2016

One of the greater crested tern & Swinhoe's minivet that Geoff mentioned

Also on the trip back to Aberdeen, we saw a group of cattle egrets flying over the rough sea, and a white-bellied sea eagle which flew so close to the ferry

26/4 Cloudy turned sunny

It's the first day of festival ferry timetable. But it might not be an excellent festive day for birders as many migrants seemed to have left.

The Red-throated loon紅喉潛鳥, which might be the same one found in Lamma last month, was found just beside the breakwater of Aberdeen harbour.

A group of over 100 bridled terns褐翅燕鷗 were flying upon the Castle Rock 螺洲石排

On the island, my list of birds were:
Common Sandpipers 8 磯鷸
Black drongo 2 黑卷尾
Long-tailed shrike 2 棕背伯勞
Asian brown flycatcher 北灰鶲
Cattle egret 1 牛背鷺
Blue whistling thrush 1 紫嘯鶇 (@ the lagoon)
Striated heron 1 綠鷺 (@ the lagoon)
Common kingfisher 1 普通翠鳥 (@ the lagoon)
Common tailorbird 1 長尾縫葉鶯
Masked laughingthrush 黑臉噪鶥

On the way back to Aberdeen, a white-bellied sea eagle was standing on the no.86 lighthouse on Round Island銀洲
