PO TOI OUTING 25/4/09 - SUMMARY OF SIGHTINGS

The day started 2 hours later than planned due to the late arrival of the boat which was expecting to turn up the next day. As a consequence the day was extended and the return to Aberdeen was not until 6pm.

Finally, I found their nests near Ap Lai Chau after the trip!

There was another trip today, kindly arranged by Andrew Hardacre and keenly taken up by those of who'd failed to act in time and get our names down for the HKBWS trip.

We left Kwun Tong at 8 and returned to Aberdeen at 3.40, having spent 11.15 to 1.30 on Po Toi during the height of the fairly dramatic thunderstorm which moved across HK today.

On the way to Po Toi we had a total of c 150 Red-necked Phalaropes (we later added about 50 more), two Crested Terns, two flocks totalling about 45 Whimbrel, a possible Sooty Shearwater (see posts elsewhere) and a small no. of Aleutian Terns. We also saw a dead Black Bittern, just south of Po Toi.

On the island we saw most of the species reported by MLC in much the same numbers.

On our return journey the highlight was a fairly tight flock of c 300 terns (certainly 270+) which seemed to be mainly Aleutian Terns (thus, perhaps as many as 250) with 30-40 Bridled Terns and small numbers of Common Terns.

活動前我們已多次與船家確認活動日期及時間,但活動當日船隻安排仍然出現問題,對各位參加者造成不便,我們深感抱歉,希望大家繼續支持我們舉辦的觀鳥活動。我們亦十分感謝當日幫忙作出特別安排的Mike Chalmers 先生, 阿佳, Michelle等,謝謝!

We have confirmed the activity date and time with the boat captain for many times before the activity. However, boat arrangement problem still happened that day. We would like to apologize for the inconvenience caused. We would also thank Mr. Mike Chalmers, Peter and Michelle for making special arrangement that morning. Thank you so much!
