About 40 joined the Po Toi outing on last Sunday. Birds on the island were OK, with Yellow-browed Bunding, Ferruginous, Mugimuki and Grey-streaked Flycatcher, Two-barred and Eastern Crowned Warbler. The sea is a bit disappointing but still offer a very good view of Greater Crested Tern. By the end of the trip, we enjoy a flock of needletail, which seem to be mainly White-throated with one Silver-backed. Thank to many birdwatchers helping to find and photograph birds. Here is my list. Please add to it if you have seen more.
