A disappointing trip to Dongyin over the holiday period, with some common migrants but no real diversity to speak of. Pretty much all the buntings there were Little Buntings, and a singing Bluethroat didn't do much to break the monotony of the daily fog.
There had been birds before and will surely be some there now as the cold front arrives. The weather had just been far too nice for far too long in the days running up to this past weekend!
I just read your blog Steve and I would have been quite happy with some of those birds you saw....Bluethroat, Goldcrest, Brown-cheeked Rail and the Shearwater are all great finds!
I tried Huajiang again at the weekend...nothing to report apart from the Chinese Penduline-Tits seem to have increased from 4 to 7 birds and the photographers have decreased from 120 to 10!
Cheers
