[Outing] Tai Po Kau 11 Jan 2009 report

Tai Po Kau 11 Jan 2009 report

27 brave birdwatchers joined the Tai Po Kau outing on a very cold morning.  The highlight is the male and female Orange-bellied Leafbird guarding their favourite nectering flowers, by imitating the Crested Goshawk call from time to time.  We also have a very good view of a male Buff-bellied Flowerpecker.
We still have 33 species in spite of very few birds.  Thanks Peter for help taking the outing.  The person who have paid membership fee on site should contact HKBWS office to register membership properly.

Few got to see the Bay Woodpecker in Tai Po Kau yet.  We only heard it calling.  I suspect the call could also be an imitation from a OB Leafbird.
