Re:[canberrabirds] China Birds

Congratulations to your harvesting bird tour. I had also been there 8 yrs ago, together with the low altitude area of westernmost Yunnan bordering with Myanmar. During the tour, I had recorded nearly 200 bird species, most of which were my personal new records. Yunnan occupies most species of birds in China, mainly because of it embracing different geographic regions: South China hilly area, Yunnan plateau, Tibet, Eastern Himalayas, North Indochina.

I would like to plan another visit to Western Yunnan after I return to my country.

Kind Regards
Sicheng Wan

                             Jane and i have just got back from Yunnan, China, although mainly a Plant and Orchid tour,  part of the tour stopped off at the Baihualing NP. A top area for birding, with hides thought the NP, to attract the birds Mealy Grubs are put out in front of the hides. I photographed about 30 different species from the hides i went to. There are approximately 800 species of birds in Yunnan, I took photos of just over 80 on the tour. I have put some of the images on my Flickr site for those interest.
