A quiet foot path, both sides full of banana trees, with various plantation including fruit trees and there is a rocky stream.
Thanks KW's recommendation.

Oh!  I used to live in that area and I still miss the birds there!
I wish you may be able to find Chestnut-winged Cuckoo there because I heard it every year but still could not see it.

Happy birding!

I think you should well prepared for mosquitoes in this season. I wore long sleeves shirt and glove but mosquitoes still bit my hand and arm. In addition, you may prepare for being disturbed since a lot of hikers, farmers of illegal farming and children would visit and pass through the area. Others are similar to Tai Po Kau.

Happy birding!
