NOT the grassy area where you can see Cattle Egrets.   Good luck   Captain   « Last Edit: Jun 8th, 2004, 11:36am by BBS Moderators » Logged gjcarey BBS Member BBS God     Posts: 115 Re: Chinese Egret at Luk Keng « Reply #1 on: May 17th, 2004, 9:53am » Quote Modify Interesting record, Captain. Pls make sure you submit it at the end of the year for inclusion in the HKBR. As it is at such an unusual location, please also provide some details regarding why you identified it as Chinese Egret, and the habitat it was in.   Many thanks,   Geoff Logged Captain Guest Re: Chinese Egret at Luk Keng « Reply #2 on: May 17th, 2004, 1:29pm » Quote Modify Remove Yellow pencil bill, white bird   More than two breeding plumes on the head   And one important point, the presence of Great, Intermediate, Little and Cattle Egrets can allow a comparison of the features     A low resolution picture was taken and can be sent to you for confirmation   Logged gjcarey BBS Member BBS God     Posts: 115 Re: Chinese Egret at Luk Keng « Reply #3 on: May 17th, 2004, 1:36pm » Quote Modify That's fine Captain. Certainly the photo will be very helpful.   I look forward to receiving your record!   Geoff Logged Mike Kilburn Committee Member BBS God     Posts: 334 Re: Chinese Egret at Luk Keng « Reply #4 on: May 19th, 2004, 12:32am » Quote Modify Captain and I again saw the Swinhoe's (Chinese) Egret at Luk Keng on Tuesday afternoon. It was feeding on the rocky parts of Starling Inlet before the tide came in.  Then flew onto the freshwater marsh to roost.   While I was watching it a Black Baza flew over also - not bad for mid May!   Cheers Mike Logged Mike Kilburn Vice Chairman Chairman - ConservationCommittee HKBWS 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 »
