2-1-2010 Early morning

Chestnut-crowned warbler x1
Chestnut-flanked white-eye x2
Striated Yuhina x ~15
Grey-headed flycatcher x1


A red-flanked bluetail male was in the garden of TPK Forest Office. But unfortunately, 10-15 "narutal photographers" have set up woods to build a scene for their own interest again. All I have observed cannot stop me to think of baiting of birds.

3-1-2011 Afternoon

Highlight:
Eurasian siskin x 7 (because of the strong light behind, I cannot well identify their sex)
At 15:00, they were stayed at the entrance of the TPK, even before the house. Seems they would like to find food on the trees of Liquidambar formosana.

Lesser necklaced laughingthrush x1 again!!
It was again moved with a group of Greater necklaced laughingthrushes. But it is too dark to take a photo of it!
I hope somebody could try to find it and take some photos of it......Thanks so much!

Other birds:
Orange-bellied leafbird  1 male and 1 female
Red-flanked bluetail 2 female
Rufous-tailed robin x 2
Asian subtail warbler x 3

and 20+ macaques..........so scary.


Eurasian siskin (sorry for poor photos):

2 Feb, morning


Fujian niltava

Thanks for posting nice photos.
But I am curious about the Fujian niltava.
It seems having intense orange color at the belly and some light blue color at the shoulder.
Could I say that is a orange-bellied niltava? If yes, that would be another great find!
Hope to know more about the identification between these two niltavas.
Any comment is appreciated and thank you so much!
