Various Jilin City sightings (updated)
It was suggested that I should start a new thread for this fairly under-reported region of China. It made sense to me. So I just took my previous post and placed it here in this new thread, corrected and updated.
I thought it might be worthwhile to list a few noteworthy birds that I have seen in the last few weeks here, in various parts in the Jilin City area, and also Changchun. All sightings below are from Jilin or outskirts except for the last ones (AWM and ... a big bat! Both seen in Changchun)
Naumann's Thrush, Turdus naumanni January 26
White-tailed Sea Eagle, Haliaeetus albicilla 白尾海雕. January 27
White-backed Woodpecker, Dendrocopos leucotos 白背啄木鸟 March 27
Daurian Redstart, Phoenicurus auroreus 北红尾鸲 March 29
Orange-flanked Bush Robin, Tarsiger cyanurus 红胁蓝尾鸲 April 1
Eurasian Teal, Anas crecca 绿翅鸭 April 11
Little Ringed Plover, Charadrius dubius 金眶鸻 April 17
Grey Wagtail, Motacilla cinerea melanope 灰鹡鸰 April 17
White wagtail, Motacilla alba 白鹡鸰 April 17
Grey-backed Thrush, Turdus hortulorum. 灰背鸫 April 24
Blue-and-White Flycatcher, Cyanoptila cyanomelana. 白腹蓝姬鹟 April 29
Azure-winged Magpie, Cyanopica cyanus. 灰喜鹊 May 3. Nanhu Park, Changchun.
Also in this park we saw a large, furry bat. This was like 11 in the morning.
Pictures of these last sightings (the flycatcher and bat) will be uploaded later. The magpie pictures were not that good. Also I plan to upload a few more pictures of that mystery warbler, but in a separate post.
I need to go back over my thrush pictures and see if I don't indeed have some Eye-browed Thrushes in there as well.
