Title: Lesser Shortwing  at Tai Po Kau
Post by Mike Kilburn on Nov 6th, 2003, 11:55pm
On Wednesday

A lesser Shortwing sang twice and was briefly seen about 50 metres above the bottom of the Tai Po Kau approach road.

It has a loud and beautiful song but is shy. It came when I pished, but only showed very briefly before disappearing.

This is the third site in which Lesser Shortwing hads been seen away from its breeeding area high on Tai Mo Shan. The others are Shek Kong Catchment and Ng Tung Chai.

Also at Tai Po Kau  were:

Verditer
Pygmy Wren Babbler
Blyth's Leaf Warbler
"Goodsoni" Blyth's Leaf Warbler (formerly known as Sulphur-breasted Warbler

Also a Mugimake Flycatcher at TPK Headland

Cheers
Mike
