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.

  • JAPANESE BUSH-WARBLER Cettia Diphone
    JAPANESE BUSH-WARBLER Cettia diphone Other: Bush Warbler, Uguisu C. d. cantans? naturalized (non-native) resident, long established The Japanese Bush Warbler is native to Japan and surrounding islands, with northern populations being slightly migratory (AOU 1998). It and the Chinese or Manchurian bush-warbler (C. canturians) of e. China are closely related and sometimes considered conspecific (as "Bush Warbler"). Japanese Bush-Warblers have not been introduced anywhere in the world except the Southeastern Hawaiian Islands, where they were released on O'ahu in 1929-1941 (Caum 1933, Long 1981, Lever 1987) and have since spread naturally to most or all other Southeastern Islands. Concerns have been expressed about competition of bush-warblers for food with native species (Foster 2009). Japanese Bush-Warblers were initially introduced by the HBAF in 1929 to control insects, but several other releases on O'ahu (totaling approximately 138 individuals) were made by the Honolulu Mejiro Club and Hui Manu Society for aesthetic purposes, primarily or entirely in Nu'uanu Valley in 1931-1941 (Caum 1933; HAS 1967; Swedberg 1967a; Berger 1972, 1975c, 1981; E 17:2-3, 37:148; PoP 49[12]:29). They spread quickly on O'ahu, were noted by Munro (1944) in the Waianae Range by 1935, were considered established by Bryan (1941), were found commonly throughout both this and the Ko'olau Range by the 1950s (Northwood 1940, Pedley 1949; E 1[12]:3-4, 17:2-3, 25:91, 27:15-16, 31:108; summarized by Berger 1975c, Shallenberger 1977c, Shallenberger and Vaughn 1978), and were observed as far as Kahuku by 1977 (E 38:56).

Both the neighbour song and the stranger song were played back to the tenitory owner from inside the neigheur's territory, from which the neighbour bird was rerpoved beforehand. When the neighbour song was played, the owner approached the speaker as close as the territory boundary and sang the type-H dominant, ordinary songs that he usually sings when patrolling in the territory. When the stranger song was played, however, the owner went beyond the boundary, approached close to the speaker and sang aggressive songs mainly composed of type-Lsongs. The results show that the owner can recognize neighbours by songs alone, and that if the neighbour is replaced by a stranger the owner ignores the previously established territory boundary and at{acks that new male. The latter result suggests the possible advantage for the territory owner to sing individually distinct sengs: if he sang unclear songs he would be attacked by his neighbours.

    Okhotsk Checklist Okhotsk Chapter of the Wild Bird Society of Japan Home Events News Checklist Bird Guide Birding Spots Surveys References Links About Us Contact Us -- Checklist of Birds in the Okhotsk Region Exactly 354 species of wild birds have been positively recorded thus far (as of 2 April 2013) in the Okhotsk (Sub-prefectural) region of Hokkaido. This compares with 633 species (excluding 43 introduced species) for all of Japan (Ornithological Society of Japan, 2012). It is a surprisingly large number in a region that has relatively few birdwatchers. The Okhotsk region is a wonderful field blessed with a great diversity of habitats. The checklist below contains all 354 of these species, plus 4 introduced species. If you happen to be in this region and spot any birds that are not in this list, please by all means report it to us! (via the Contact Us page). One point to note in this list, however, is that while we generally have one name in Japanese for our birds, in English there is often more than one name. There is also occasionally some disagreement in the references concerning scientific names. (Avibase is a good online source to check for updates to names in current use.) For now, we have included most of the recent names that we have come across for the benefit of our readers around the world. We will continue to edit this list over time based on new information as we receive it. To download a PDF version of the checklist page, click here → Download Okhotsk Checklist (105 KB).

  • Differences in Vocalizations of Japanese Bush Warblers on Chichijima and Hahajima in the Ogasawara Islands
    Bull. Natl. Mus. Nat. Sci., Ser. A, 44(4), pp. 125–132, November 22, 2018 Differences in Vocalizations of Japanese Bush Warblers on Chichijima and Hahajima in the Ogasawara Islands Shoji Hamao Department of Zoology, National Museum of Nature and Science, 4–1–1 Amakubo, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, 305–0005 Japan E-mail: [email protected] (Received 4 August 2018; accepted 26 September 2018) Abstract Bird songs play an important role in species recognition in reproductive behaviors. Therefore, geographic variation in the songs of a given species affects gene flow and reproductive isolation. A previous study showed that Japanese bush warblers, Cettia diphone, on Hahajima in the Ogasawara (Bonin) Islands sing songs with a simpler acoustic structure than those of C. diphone in mainland Japan. I investigated whether the acoustic structure of songs differs between the populations on two neighboring islands, Chichijima and Hahajima. In type-H songs, the maxi- mum frequency was lower, the minimum frequency was higher, and the frequency range was, therefore, narrower on Hahajima than on Chichijima. In type-L songs, the maximum and minimum frequencies were lower and the frequency range was narrower on Hahajima than on Chichijima. A possible factor giving rise to the narrower frequency range on Hahajima is the sound transmission properties of the habitat, although further studies are needed to explore this hypothesis. Loose iso- lation among populations could produce differences in song structure because birdsong is a cultur- ally transmitted trait. Key words: acoustic structure, Cettia diphone, geographic variation, Japanese bush warbler, Ogasawara Islands, song Parus major, within a habitat, suggesting that Introduction blue tits use species-specific songs (i.e., songs Like morphological traits, bird songs have with a trill) to reduce aggressive interactions evolved under various selection pressures from with great tits, whose songs never include trills ecological and social factors (Kroodsma and (Doutrelant and Lambrechts, 2001).

By Steve Hilty One of the top highlights mentioned by most members of the group was a Ural Owl sleeping in a large, picturesque tree hollow. It was, in fact, an image that could have been plucked straight from an illustrated book of fairy tales from the Middle Ages. A male Eurasian Bullfinch in beautiful morning light also garnered top honors and, surprisingly, so did the diminutive Japanese Pygmy Woodpecker. For several of us, a large flock of Rooks eluding repeated prey- capture attempts by a Peregrine Falcon (the Rooks being more capable and wily than they might appear) over a large expanse of rice paddies was a trip highlight. Also prized were more than a dozen Stellar’s and White-tailed sea-eagles perched on a forested Hokkaido hillside during a snowstorm. The arrival of a Blakiston’s Fish-Owl at a small pool resulted in a mass exodus from our rather sedate and stylized Japanese dinner. And yes, then there were the Japanese Cranes, lumps of black and white fluff standing in a frigid river as steamy mists from the thermally- heated river water rose around them—a surreal and unforgettable setting. Surprisingly, perhaps, the Mandarin Ducks received not a single nod at the end—perhaps because they were a little distant—although they generated much excitement the morning we saw them, and the image of a stately pair cruising steadily across a mirror-smooth lake in early morning light, their narrow wake line trailing behind, will not likely be forgotten.
