  • Status of Wintering Waterbirds on Hainan Island: Results of Annual Waterbird Surveys Between 2008−2020
    FORKTAIL 36 (2020): 79–89 Status of wintering waterbirds on Hainan Island: results of annual waterbird surveys between 2008−2020 FEI LI, GANG LU, BOSCO PUI LOK CHAN, XI ZHENG, ZHI-QIN ZHOU & YAN-NI MO We conducted annual surveys on wintering waterbirds at a total of 81 wetland sites on China’s Hainan Island from 2008 to 2020. These surveys recorded 82 waterbird species. Little Egret Egretta garzetta, Lesser Sand Plover Charadrius mongolus and Kentish Plover C. alexandrinus were the most abundant species, while Little Egret, Chinese Pond Heron Ardeola bacchus and Common Sandpiper Actitis hypoleucos were the most widespread. We discovered a new and important wintering site for the endangered Black-faced Spoonbill Platalea minor in Danzhou Bay. Our data also suggest that Hainan may be a regular wintering site for a small number of Great Knot Calidris tenuirostris and Nordmann’s Greenshank Tringa guttifer. Sites of particular importance included Dongzhaigang, Houshui Bay, Danzhou Bay, Beili Bay, Changhuajiang River Estuary and Yinggehai Saltpans, but not all of them are formally protected at present. Our longitudinal data suggest an increasing trend in the total number of waterbirds counted, but this most likely reflects increased survey effort over the years, improving field skills of surveyors and a growing knowledge of important waterbird sites. The average annual count of waterbirds recorded during our 13-year survey period was relatively low compared with some nearby wetlands of importance on the mainland. Our surveys also detected continuous declines of waterbirds at some sites. To safeguard the future of Hainan’s waterbirds and their habitats, we recommend establishing new or expanding existing protected areas at key sites, and enhancing management and enforcement efforts throughout the island.

Without his encouragement and support, my research would have been far more difficult. I thank him for making time for me despite his busy schedules. He gave me great help with my language nearly every day during these two years. I also thank him for his patient reading of my write-ups and for giving me opportunities to conduct occasional research work and tutorials. I would like to thank all the people that I met or I contacted in Sinopec, CNOOC and CNPC for their willingness to give me advice and help me understanding various aspects of the petroleum industry in China. I give my deepest thanks to my parents Hongbin Hou and Maolan Fu for their love and support through the years. They encouraged me to come to Australia to undertake this research. They always trust me and understand me even when I doubted myself. I thank my five best friends in China – Jun, Xiaomu, Ying, Xiaoqing and Jiaye for their great support and love through my ups and downs. They were my second family even if I was thousand miles away from them.
