I'm just back from Haikou. This time I went to Dongzhaigang Forest Park, but unfortunately, all migrants birds left already. So I've spent few days in a Ever Green Park, always good for birding and even Mangrove forest, which was nice, even not new to me, but for bird pictures quite dificoult.
I have again a planty of bird pictures and I would appreciate very much for ID.

Regards

I was a very happy to see, White breasted kingfisher and a Common kingfisher.
I saw the Crested kingfisher, as well, but just flying, no way to take an picture.

Ever Green Park in Haikou is very popular for, e.g. morning training, nevertheless there are a planty of birds:
Black drongo
White wagtail
yellow wagtail
Spoted dove
Sooty headed bulbul
Red-billed starling
Azur-winged magpie

I've bin in Hikou for one week, but not so much time to go for bird photography. Again I've visited Ever Green park, which is really a very good place to take pictures of bird, but unfortunatelly, almost the same birds are staying there. Migrant have left already also not so much surprised species.
I went also to an location, close to Haikou, to see bee eater (Merops viridis). It was amazing to see a colony of more then 50 birds hunting for insekts and seating around. It was a old sand pit and I'm afraid in few months, it will desappear.

Lanhua · Jun 5, 2015

at the same place I saw three kind of kingfisher:
Common kingfisher, White thrated kingfisher and Tied kingfisher. Great.

Lanhua · Jun 5, 2015

in the park Red bill starling, showing, for me, new colration of the feather, Black-collared starlling and Sandpiper?
