Late March 2014
Dawangjia Island, Liaoning 遼寧大王家島
Long-tailed Duck 長尾鴨
It was interesting to note that the male sometimes would wag its tail like a dog.

Red-breasted Merganser 紅胸秋沙鴨
It's interesting to note that the female's eye-ring was black instead of white as shown on "The Birds of HK & South China".

Paul,

Some interesting birds up there !  Perhaps we'll get lucky next winter and see one or two down here in HK.

Seems like a pretty unique place to bird with all the birds around the sea of buoys.

I envy you those Long-tailed Duck - haven't seen one for 20-odd years!


Cheers
Mike

John,
Let's hope that this winter will be a big year for the rare birds from the north !

Mike,
I didn't have any idea about birds 20 years ago !

Paul
