Many BFS have come to Mai Po now, including several colour-ringed individuals. If you see any ringed BFS, Please post the information here or send it to me (bfspoon bill @hkbws.org.hk  *remove the space*).

By the way, the one ringed in North Korea in July 1995 was seen at Mai Po yesterday (6 Nov). So, it is in 12 years old now - the longest longevity record of wild BFS.

Hi Katherine,

I think It should be A23. More ringed BFS have started lost their plastic rings. I think we need to record the ring bird whether is adult or immature bird that give extra information to the identity of the bird.

Thanks

K73 on the scrape (gei wai #16/17) during high tide these last few days.

Seems the over-summering flock at Mai Po is down to only 2 individuals these last 3 weeks, shame.

I can't find the site to check for the colour-band records of all BFS, does anyone know if there's any valid link now?

From this site (http://www.hkbws.org.hk/archive/bfs/indexc.html), the link http://www.hkbws.org.hk/waterbird/bfs3.html is not working.
