We started photoing them at 5 pm. http://kite.center.kl.edu.tw/vbb/attachment.php?s=&postid=79705   The back of it. http://kite.center.kl.edu.tw/vbb/attachment.php?s=&postid=79715 http://kite.center.kl.edu.tw/vbb/attachment.php?s=&postid=79712   All busy eating. http://kite.center.kl.edu.tw/vbb/attachment.php?s=&postid=79708 http://kite.center.kl.edu.tw/vbb/attachment.php?s=&postid=79710 http://kite.center.kl.edu.tw/vbb/attachment.php?s=&postid=79706   They flew away when the sun was nearly gone, at about 6pm. And then, we saw 2 bats flying round and round above.  We thought they were birds at the begining but found out they didn't have any tails and the wings were crooked. it was another surprise beside the return of the chinese greenfinches. http://kite.center.kl.edu.tw/vbb/attachment.php?s=&postid=79716 Bye Bye~ see you tomorrow « Last Edit: May 24th, 2004, 3:15pm by BBS Moderators » Logged Alvin BBS Member BBS Full Member ENJOY the PEACE     Gender: Posts: 33 Re: Chinese Greenfinch is BACK « Reply #1 on: Feb 12th, 2004, 9:06pm » Quote Modify   A very beautiful bird !!!!!

Are they located somewhere around the park right under Ravana Garden? Logged carmen BBS Moderator BBS Member BBS God Life is Simple.

The entrance of On King St. Park. you can find 7 大葉紫薇 facing the floating restaurant. they eat the seeds of 大葉紫薇. if you want to see Siberian Rubythroat, grey-backed thrush, rufuous-tailed robin and olive backed pipit, go to the back of the new canoe rowing centre. located at the end of On King St. carmen Logged camel BBS Member BBS Junior Member I love bird watching!     Posts: 23 Re: Chinese Greenfinch is BACK « Reply #7 on: Feb 14th, 2004, 2:13pm » Quote Modify Thx a lot!! Will give it a try soon, and hopefully I'll still find them.
