Title: Pheasant-tailed Jacana
Post by Alex_Tung on Oct 16^th, 2003, 11:00pm

3 Pheasant-tailed Jacana were seen staying together at Mai Po today. This species is a new record for myself. I felt so lucky I could see 3 for my first time ::)

I am interested to see the P-t Jacana as well. Can you tell me where you saw it? (is it Pond #20, Pond #17..etc?). Thanks!

More, grateful if you can submit the record to Records Committee. Many thanks! ::)

There were only 2 birds seen yesterday at Mai Po (sorry don't know the pond no.)

However they were not seen this morning.

You could also check out Long Valley and Kam Tin, which are the other good sites for this wonderful bird.
