I've been trying to establish this so I can make a schedule for myself and it may be of interest to others. These are from my expereince or from those of guides/locals I've noted whilst researching.
If you have any comments, amendments or differing opinions please state them below !
Also please add any individual locations and seasons you have personal experience of or add a comment about how the birding was at the time/season you were there (if not prime). Hopefully this can then become a short reference for birders wishing to visit China /S.E.Asia.
