I have placed some of the photos in the following page and would be grateful if someone in HKBWS could help me confirm/correct the ID of the birds, especially the one which I caption as "unknown bird".   http://www26.brinkster.com/tangwk/photo_index.asp?cat=Photo_nature_HK_20 03   Thanks in advance.   Tang Singapore « Last Edit: Dec 11th, 2003, 5:17pm by tanghb » Logged Mike Kilburn Committee Member BBS God     Posts: 334 Re: Bird ID help, please « Reply #1 on: Dec 12th, 2003, 1:45am » Quote Modify Hi Tang   All your ID is correct except that the Oriental Skylarks are in fact Zitting Cisticola (Fantail Warbler).   The unknown bird is arather starnge plumage variation of Siberian Stonechat.   Cheers   Mike Logged Mike Kilburn Vice Chairman Chairman - ConservationCommittee HKBWS tanghb BBS Member BBS Newbie I love bird watching!     Gender: Posts: 4 Re: Bird ID help, please « Reply #2 on: Dec 12th, 2003, 11:59pm » Quote Modify Thanks a lot , Mike.   I have one more question. I saw a tiny bird ~14 cm with orange-red colour from throat to belly, in Tai Po Kau. I didn't have the time to capture it on camera. What bird could it be?   Thanks again Tang Logged Mike Turnbull Guest Re: Bird ID help, please « Reply #3 on: Dec 15th, 2003, 9:58am » Quote Modify Remove Sounds like a Silver-eared Mesia.   Mike Turnbull Logged Pages: 1  Reply Send Topic Print Forum Jump: ----------------------------- Announcement 簡訊通告 -----------------------------  - Membership Affair 會員事務   - Outings / Activities 戶外活動 / 講座   - Projects 項目計劃   - Crested Bulbul Club 紅耳鵯俱樂部 ----------------------------- Discussion Area 討論區 -----------------------------  - General 一般問題   - Conservation 自然保育 => Bird Identification 鳥類辨識   - Birding Reports & Tips 觀鳥報告及心得   - Photo Gallery 相片分享 I   - Photo Gallery 相片分享 II ----------------------------- Special Topics 特別主題 -----------------------------  - Wild Birds & Avian Flu 野鳥與禽流感   - Sustainable Management Scheme in Long Valley 塱原可持續生態管理計劃   - Black-faced Spoonbill 黑臉琵鷺   - Goodbye Penfold 告別彭福   - Tern Conservation 燕鷗保育   - Black-eared Kite 鳶(麻鷹)   - Swifts and Swallows 燕與雨燕   - China Birdwatching Network 中國觀鳥活動網絡   - Winter Altas Survey 冬季鳥類普查   - Nature Conservation Policy 自然保育政策 ----------------------------- Knowledge Sharing 知識分享 -----------------------------  - FAQ 常見問題   - Archive 資料重溫 « Previous topic | Next topic »
