Tengchong, Yunnan, China ... Part 1 (1 Viewer)

Frogfish

Well-known member
Just back from a trip and a host of unknowns ! Hoping you can help me ID these new-to-me birds.

Sorry for the lo-res photos. Either heavy crops or taken very early/late and so very noisy.

Altitude : Around ca. 1,700 - 2,000m (5,600 - 6,600ft). Yunnan province near the border with Burma.

1. & 2. No idea
3. & 4.Yellow-browed bunting ?
5. OBP or Rosy ?

Thanks !
Kevin

Excellent ! Thanks guys. I felt sure #1 was a Laugher (tail position and general jiss) but just didn't think it matched Robson's or MacKinnon's, it does now :D
