米埔的鳥類mai Po Birds 米埔的鳥類 Mai Po Birds 前言 Foreword 本「米埔鳥類名錄」(包括米埔及內后海灣拉姆薩爾濕地及鄰近濕地地區範圍)共記錄超過 400 個野生鳥類物種(即香港鳥類名錄中類 別 I 之鳥類),記錄於本名錄 A 部份。當中逾 370 個物種曾在「米埔自然保護區及中心」範圍(圖 1)內錄得,在本名錄以「*」號 表 示。 其他與逃逸或放生的籠鳥相關的米埔鳥類物種,記錄於本名錄 B 部份(即香港鳥類名錄中類別 II 及 III 之鳥類)。 This “Mai Po bird species list” hold over 400 wild bird species (i.e. Category I of the Hong Kong Bird Species List), recorded from the Mai Po and Inner Deep Bay Ramsar Site and its vicinity wetland area. They are shown in Section A of this list. Over 370 of these species have been recorded inside the “Mai Po Nature Reserve and Centers” boundary (Fig 1). They are marked with an asterisk (*) in this list. Other Mai Po species for which records are considered likely to relate to birds that have escaped or have been released from captivity are shown in Section B of this list (i.e. Category II and III of the Hong Kong Bird Species List). 圖 1. 米埔自然保護區及中心 Fig. 1 Mai Po Nature Reserve and Centers Credit: Google Earth 2010 1 Last update: May 2020 最後更新日期:2020 年 5 月 A 部份 Section A: 中文名稱 英文名稱 學名 全球保育狀況 1 *

  • Central Thailand Set Departure Trip Report
    CENTRAL THAILAND SET DEPARTURE TRIP REPORT 6 – 15 JANUARY 2020 By Andy Walker We had fantastic views of the highly sought Spoon-billed Sandpiper during the tour. www.birdingecotours.com [email protected] 2 | TRIP REPORT Central Thailand: January 2020 Overview This ten-day set departure birdwatching tour of Central Thailand commenced in Bangkok on the 6th of January 2020 and ended back there on the 15th of January 2020. This tour visited Khao Yai National Park, Kaeng Krachan National Park, and the Gulf of Thailand (Laem Pak Bia and Pak Thale), as well as several less-well-known sights along the way. There were so many highlight birds during the trip! One of the main draws of birding in Thailand during the northern winter is the chance to see Spoon-billed Sandpiper. During our tour we had exceptional, close views of this highly sought shorebird (as shown on the cover image of this report). There were a great many other avian highlights too, such as Siamese Fireback, Silver Pheasant, Kalij Pheasant, Blue Pitta, Great Hornbill, Wreathed Hornbill (visiting the nest), Tickell’s Brown Hornbill, Buffy Fish Owl, Silver-breasted Broadbill, Common Green Magpie, Red-headed Trogon, Orange-breasted Trogon, Heart-spotted Woodpecker, Great Slaty Woodpecker, Nordmann’s Greenshank, Asian Dowitcher, Malaysian Plover, ‘White- faced Plover’ (a distinctive subspecies of Kentish Plover and split by some authorities), and Chinese Egret. A total of 259 bird species were seen (plus six species heard only). We also found an interesting array of mammals and reptiles; some of these included Pileated Gibbon, Lar Gibbon, Dusky Langur, Lyle’s Flying Fox, Black Giant Squirrel, Lesser Oriental Chevrotain, and Burmese Green Crested Lizard.

  • Forest Bird Fauna of South China: Notes on Current Distribution and Status
    FORKTAIL 22 (2006): 23–38 Forest bird fauna of South China: notes on current distribution and status LEE KWOK SHING, MICHAEL WAI-NENG LAU, JOHN R. FELLOWES and CHAN BOSCO PUI LOK From 1997 to 2004, a team from Hong Kong and southern China conducted rapid biodiversity surveys in 54 forest areas in the provinces of Guangdong, Guangxi and Hainan. A total of 372 bird species were recorded (201 in Guangdong, 299 in Guangxi and 164 in Hainan), including 12 globally threatened species, 50 China Key Protected Species and 44 species outside their previously recorded ranges. Breeding was confirmed for 94 species. In total, 232 species (62%) were recorded at five sites or fewer (2–10%). These include species at the edge of their range, migratory and wintering species inadequately sampled by these surveys, species more characteristic of non- forest habitats, and less conspicuous species that were under-recorded, but also rare and localised species. Of particular conservation concern are the globally threatened White-eared Night Heron Gorsachius magnificus, Cabot’s Tragopan Tragopan caboti, Hainan Partridge Arborophila ardens, White-necklaced Partridge Arborophila gingica, Fairy Pitta Pitta nympha, Pale-capped Pigeon Columba punicea, Brown-chested Jungle Flycatcher Rhinomyias brunneata and Gold-fronted Fulvetta Alcippe variegaticeps, and other species highly dependent on the region’s forests, such as Hainan Peacock Pheasant Polyplectron katsumatae, Pale-headed Woodpecker Gecinulus grantia, Blue-rumped Pitta Pitta soror, Swinhoe’s Minivet Pericrocotus cantonensis and Fujian Niltava Niltava davidi. At most of the sites visited, the main threat is habitat loss and degradation, especially clearance of natural forest for timber and agriculture; most remaining natural forests are fragmented and small in size.

  • Home Range Size and Habitat Use of the Blue-Crowned Laughingthrush During the Breeding Season
    Home range size and habitat use of the blue-crowned laughingthrush during the breeding season Tao Liu1, Yongtao Xu1, Bai Mo1, Jinze Shi1, Yachang Cheng2,3, Weiwei Zhang1 and Fumin Lei4 1 College of Forestry, Jiangxi Agricultural University, Nanchang, Jiangxi, China 2 Department of Migration, Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, Radolfzell, Germany 3 University of Konstanz, Department of Biology, Konstanz, Germany 4 Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China ABSTRACT The home range size and habitat use of the blue-crowned laughingthrush (Garrulax courtoisi, hereafter BCLT), a critically endangered, subtropical, cooperative-breeding bird species in southeast China, were studied during its breeding period using radio telemetry at different sites during 3 consecutive years (2016–18, from May to June of each year). A total of 17 birds (12 males, four females, and one of unknown sex) were tagged, and a total 1515 locations (mean ± se D 89.12 ± 11.42) were obtained over 54 days of tracking. The average 100% minimum convex polygon (MCP) home range size was 10.05 ± 1.17 ha, and the estimated KDE core area (fiexed kernel density estimator, KDE) size was 7.84 ± 1.18 ha. According to the Wilcoxon rank sum tests, both the 100% MCP and KDE core area size of males did not significantly differ from those of females. There were no significant differences in the 100% MCP or KDE core area sizes of the three breeding sites. The available habitats in the breeding sites included water areas, shrubs, grass plots, woodland, residential areas, vegetable field, farmland, and sandy beaches; among them, only woodland was significantly preferred by BCLTs.

    APPENDIX 10B Hong Kong-Zhuhai- Macao Bridge Hong Kong Link Road – Verification Survey for Ecologcial Baseline Final Report, May 2009 Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge Hong Kong Link Road – Verification Survey for Ecological Baseline _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1.0 BACKGROUND 1.1 The Verification Survey (hereafter known as the “current study”) was designed to cover wet and dry seasons between the end of August 2008 and January 2009. Within this 5 month period, ecological surveys focused on the areas of sub-tidal, intertidal and terrestrial habitat that lie within a 500m distance of the Hong Kong Link Road (HKLR) alignment as well as sites/habitats of concern in the vicinity. Desktop studies have been employed in order to describe important habitats in the wider area. 1.2 The Assignment includes the following: (a) undertake a desktop study of available data; (b) undertake field surveys and investigations covering both the wet and dry seasons; (c) investigate and describe the existing wildlife uses of various habitats; (d) review and verify the validity of the ecological baseline information produced under Agreement No. MW 01/2003; and, (e) establish the updated ecological profile of the Survey Area and description of the characteristics of each habitat found. 1.3 This Final Report on Verification Survey includes the results of the surveys carried in the wet and dry seasons and the dive survey. 2.0 LITERATURE REVIEW 2.0.1 Headings follow those in the previous study Final 9 Month Ecological Baseline Survey Report (hereafter known as the “Previous Study’) produced by Meinhardt Mouchel in August 2004 for the Highways Department (HyD).
