The weather on Valentine's Day in 2009 was not so satisfactory indeed. But our birding results were quite satisfactory. We visited 2 places in 1 day. The first place was Ng Tung Chai and the other was Nam Chung. Please note that the birding record is posted separately in different topic.
2009年情人節的天氣並不理想, 但看到的雀鳥紀錄令人滿意. 這一天我們到了2個地方. 第一個是梧桐寨, 繼後的則是南涌. 請留意這個觀鳥紀錄會跟不同的主題分開發出.

Lastly, special thanks to Colin for facilitate our access to these two venues. We were not able to see so many different species in one day without him!
最後特別鳴謝Colin兄, 令我們可以很順利到達這2個地方觀鳥. 沒有他的幫助, 我們不能在同一天裡看到這麼多鳥種!
