Various Banded Birds seen on 2Nov20

Thank you so much for the sightings!

Redshank BE was ringed on 20-Sep-20 as a first-year bird, already been reported several times at Mai Po.

Red-necked Stint J9 was ringed on 7-Apr-19 as an adult. It was reported in Shenzhen in Sep-Oct 2019, and then Sep-20. First time for it to be sighted at Mai Po!

Whimbrel X3 was also ringed on 20-Sep-20. Seen a few times at Mai Po mudflat since then.

Redshank T0 was an old one. It was ringed on 4-Aug-12 as a second-year bird, i.e. born in 2011 summer. It was reported at Mai Po in 2012-2018 for 22 times. No body report it in 2019 and then sighted again in Feb-20. Nice to see it back again.

Redshank blue-over-green flag is from (outer) Mongolia. Presume the same bird as reported last week. Ringed at Chukh Bird Research Station. I have passed on the sighting to their researchers.
