Anyway, had a walk around Tai Po Kau this morning and saw the following :   Olive backed Pipit 11 Grey-chinned Minivet 1 Red-whiskered Bulbul Chinese Bulbul Chestnut Bulbul 4 Lesser Shortwing 1   Oriental Magpie Robin 2 Japanese Thrush 1 male Grey-backed Thrush 1 male Streaked-breasted Scimitar Babbler 1 Rufous-capped Babbler 5 Grey-cheeked Fulvetta 6+ (isn't this unusual?) Black-throated Laughingthrush 2 Silver-eared Mesia 20+ Red-billed Leiothrix 3 Asian Stubtail Warbler 1   Common Tailorbird 1 Pallas's Leaf Warbler 3 Yellow-browed Warbler 10+ Great Tit 6 (no Yellow-cheeked   ) Velvet-fronted Nuthatch 4 Scarlet-backed Flowerpecker 1+ Fork-tailed Sunbird 6 Japanese White-eye + Large-billed Crow 1   On the 7th in Kowloon Park I saw the following:   Peregrine 1 Grey-backed Thrush 1 female   Is there much else in here at the moment please? I note the photo of Slaty-legged Crake in the new excellent photographic guide was taken in there, was this passing through or are they regular? Lastly where is Kowloon Hill Catchment please?   Hope this is OK and if anybody would like any further info on any of the above sightings then please contact me.   All the best and stay safe!

They breed widely in the NT (esp. NE) but are rarely seen.   Reports on this board give a pretty good picture of what's about at the moment - quite a bit really with winter species remaining and some early spring passage migrants arriving. However, March generally tends to be a bit of a lull, between winter proper and spring (which in bird terms sreally tarts during the last five days or so in March usually).     Kowloon Hills Catchwater is mainly east of Tai Po Road just over the brow of the hills on the NT side.     Hope this helps and that you get back to HK some time.   Mike Turnbull   Logged Bob Thompson BBS Member BBS God I love bird watching!     Gender: Posts: 433 Re: Tai Po Kau ¤j®HÞ] 2006 Spring ¬K « Reply #6 on: Mar 8th, 2006, 9:00pm » Kowloon Catchment Area is the area surrounding Kowloon Reservoir, Kowloon Byewash Reservoir and Shek Lei Pui Reservoir. These 3 reservoirs are to the west of Tai Po Road in an area commonly called "Monkey Hill". The entrance road is halfway between 51 and 52 Milestone . The road goes to a firing range and a wireless station Logged miket BBS Member BBS God I'd rather be birding!     Posts: 257 Re: Tai Po Kau ¤j®HÞ] 2006 Spring ¬K « Reply #7 on: Mar 8th, 2006, 9:41pm » You are of course right, Bob, in your fuller description than I gave of what constitutes Kowloon (Reservoirs/Hills) Water Catchment, but I assumed Marcus meant the Kowloon Hills Catchwater walk, where most of the birds reported from that area are seen, I believe, e.g. the Forest Wagtail that has been seen there recently.     That is on the other side of Tai Po Road from the reservoirs, ie the east side.   Just seeking to clarify, in case Marcus wants to go there during the rest of his stay.   Mike Turnbull Logged Bob Thompson BBS Member BBS God I love bird watching!     Gender: Posts: 433 Re: Tai Po Kau ¤j®HÞ] 2006 Spring ¬K « Reply #8 on: Mar 8th, 2006, 10:30pm » That's right Mike, I beleive one walk  is called the Eagles Nest Nature Trail and the walk along the catchment Nullah is a part of the Wilson Trail and it comes out opposite the carpark at Kowloon Reservoir.   Watch out for monkeys and illegal imigrants « Last Edit: Mar 8th, 2006, 10:31pm by Bob Thompson » Logged Ken BBS Member BBS Full Member I love bird watching!     Posts: 38 Re: Tai Po Kau ¤j®HÞ] 2006 Spring ¬K « Reply #9 on: Mar 18th, 2006, 7:13pm » Fo Tan up to top of Tai Po Kau   Crested Serpent Eagle x 2 (calling, displaying(?))
