I just put a trip report on Cloudbirders from some time spent birding in Japan during a business trip to Asia last month.

Like the report, it makes me nostalgic for my business trips to the US. It was finding something interesting to do at weekends there that got me back into birding. For a while my US list was larger than my UK one ;-)

I know what that's like. I actually keep a China list. It's not as long as my US list yet, but it's getting there.

PS I used to live near Surbiton many years ago (before I was a birder). Good memories.

My "China" list is really a Hong Kong list from when I lived there in the late 60s (I started birding VERY early OK, I'm not really 100 years old ;-) I must dig out all my old notebooks and make a proper list sometime. Pity you weren't birding when you lived near Surbiton, what with the Thames and the Royal Parks it's not a bad place to do a bit of birding

Nice report

Thanks for posting.
We are spending a few days in Karuizawa in February nice to hear a bit about where you went birding around there.
