Have sent PM's to Mike in Hong Kong and Tim Attwood before spotting this part of the forum but in case anyone else can help will be in Lijiang in Yunnan province between 24th and 30th June and then drive from there to Kunming over the weekend. Any birds I should be looking out for?

Cheers

Hi Nick,

Welcome back to China, sorry there is no birder lived in Lijiang as I konw. But the birds there is very diversified. So there are many birding reports in different evironments, such as meadows, snow mountains, forests, etc. You could tell me the place you birding there if you like, I'll send you the relevant reports.

Regards :)
 
Hi
Giant nuthatch up the hill behind Black Dragon Pool Park in Lijiang. The park itself can be reasonable although sometimes crowded.

Thanks Tony,

That's a good news, the Giant Nuthatch has been becoming less than before. I'm interested in how many of them have you seen? and is there any breeding behaviour?

Hi Nick,

How exciting I hear you will come. Before your comeing to Chengdu, please let me know, hoping to meet you soon :)

By the way, in Kunming, the West Moutain (Xi Shan) is a good place for watching forest birds. And Cang Shan in Dali is a nice birding site.
