The bird calls only during the first hour of light. By using playback the bird responds and creeps up the tall stems into view.   Also seen     Bright capped Cisticola Yellow-bellied Tit (by others)   Graham « Last Edit: Mar 10th, 2006, 6:41pm by Forrest FONG » Logged miket BBS Member BBS God I'd rather be birding!     Posts: 257 Re: Sha Lo Tung Spring 2006 « Reply #1 on: Mar 10th, 2006, 6:12pm » Thanks for the information HK_Twitcher!   Wow!   I'll be there first thing tomorrow!   Mike Turnbull       Logged George_Ho BBS Member BBS God 享受觀鳥的樂趣     Gender: Posts: 160 Re: Sha Lo Tung/Fung Yuen 沙羅洞/鳳園 2006 Spring « Reply #2 on: Mar 11th, 2006, 9:56pm » Some records were from today's small group outing.   Sha Lo Tung Yellow-bellied Tit - still there Bright-capped Cisticola - 2 Rufous-tailed Robin - heard   Fung Yuen Red-flanked Bluetail - M&F Grey-backed Thrush - 1 Daurian Redstart - M Crested Goshawk - 1 Besra - 2 Unidentified Accepiter sp. - 2 Yellow-cheeked Tit - heard Rufous-capped Babbler - heard Scarlet Minivet - M&F Black-faced Bunting - 2   Hok Tau Yellow-bellied Tit - 1 Scarlet-backer Flowerpecker - 3 Daurian Redstart - F Logged 觀鳥是要用心眼，並非簡單地用肉眼去看，用心眼去感受一下，看透牠們奧秘的生命。 鳳園蝴蝶保育區委員 George_Ho BBS Member BBS God 享受觀鳥的樂趣     Gender: Posts: 160 Re: Sha Lo Tung/Fung Yuen 沙羅洞/鳳園 2006 Spring « Reply #3 on: Mar 25th, 2006, 6:48pm » Fung Yuen   Narcissus Flycatcher - immature male Black-naped Monarch - 5 , high count there Japanese Thrush - 2+ Grey-backed Thrush - 6+ Eastern Crowned Warbler - 1 Logged 觀鳥是要用心眼，並非簡單地用肉眼去看，用心眼去感受一下，看透牠們奧秘的生命。 鳳園蝴蝶保育區委員 miket BBS Member BBS God I'd rather be birding!     Posts: 257 Re: Sha Lo Tung/Fung Yuen 沙羅洞/鳳園 2006 Spring « Reply #4 on: Mar 26th, 2006, 2:19pm » George,   This sounds like a very good spot!   Could you tell us where exactly you saw the birds in Fung Yuen?   Thanks,   Mike Turnbull Logged George_Ho BBS Member BBS God 享受觀鳥的樂趣     Gender: Posts: 160 Re: Sha Lo Tung/Fung Yuen 沙羅洞/鳳園 2006 Spring « Reply #5 on: Mar 26th, 2006, 10:41pm » Hi Mike,   Fung Yuen can be separated into these three parts:   Fung Yuen Road - along side the road, you can see a stream and abandoned land nearby. I saw the two Monarchs and Eastern Crowned Warbler in there just along the stream. One of the Monarchs was adult male.   SSSI area Koo Ka Yuen - the end of the FY Road, you can see a bridge and can cross to the government land on the left hand. The vegetation is mainly cover with shrubs and Trees (Fung Shui Wood). One Monarch and several thrushes were seen in there yesterday.   Fung Shui Wood (behind FY Lo Tsuen)- Restricted Area, It is the most producible area for birds in FY and is managed and monitored by Fung Yuen Butterfly Reserve (under Tai Po Environmental Association). Narcissus Flycatcher, two Monarchs and thrushes were found in there.   Website for your reference http://www.fungyuen.org/html/enquiry.htm The first photo showed how to enter the FY Road. The second photo showed FY Road.   The third photo showed turning right to FY Lo Tsuen. The forth photo showed the private car park. Hence, you may park your car at FY Road. The fifth photo showed the location of FYBR center.   Hope can help you and other birders.   George Logged 觀鳥是要用心眼，並非簡單地用肉眼去看，用心眼去感受一下，看透牠們奧秘的生命。 鳳園蝴蝶保育區委員 George_Ho BBS Member BBS God 享受觀鳥的樂趣     Gender: Posts: 160 Re: Sha Lo Tung/Fung Yuen 沙羅洞/鳳園 2006 Spring « Reply #6 on: Mar 26th, 2006, 10:44pm » I think Black-naped Monarch is common in recent-year winter and regular to some woodland areas like FY, Bride’s Pool, and Beacon Hill (Kln hills catchment).     Just in case of year 2005-09 to 2006-03, for autumn migrant, I found Sha Lo Tung, Tai Po Kau, Tsim Bei Tsui, Sha Tin Pass are regular site. For winter, I found FY, SLT, Ng Tung Chai, Pat Sin Leng, Hok Tau, Lam Tsuen, and Shing Mun are wintering site for the year. For spring, I found in FY and Wong Lung Hang (Lantau Island).
