For members' information. From November to April, a series of trainings will be organized for Environmental Life Sciences of the University of Hong Kong.

A bird watching outing was organized on 28 November at Tai Po Kau. Participants submitted their bird survey result for the workshop on 21 November.

It was an interesting experience, some of them were lucky enough to find the Slaty-backed Forktail and Striated Yuhinas. Thanks for Gary Chow, Karin Chan and Captain Wong for facilitating the event.
