16/07/2008 Hoi Ha and Tap Mun 海下及塔門


今日下午3種燕鷗每種都有十幾隻, 粉紅仲成廿幾隻,
而且3種燕鷗都有追船啦!
不過比當年高峰期既距離仲差好遠!
不過真係好期待! 我已經等左4年啦!

那群燕鷗昨天(18/7/08)仍在塔門一帶活動,
共有三十隻粉紅燕鷗和差不多二十隻黑枕,
全部都是成鳥,實在少見。

牠們有時會飛到塔門碼頭附近活動,
有興趣者可乘馬料水到塔門小輪,
過荔枝莊後開始留意海面,
特別是 119 導航燈和塔門碼頭的紅色綠色浮標。

牠們看來不像是在當地繁殖的一群,
個人推測或許是在別處繁殖失敗而集體到處流浪。

The terns were still staying around Tap Mun yesterday (18/7/08).
There were a total of 30 adult Roseates and nearly 20 Black-napeds - haven't seen such congregation  for many years.

The terns may forage around Tap Mun Pier.
Those intersted may take the ferry from Ma Liu Shui to Tap Mun.
Start spotting after Lai Chi Chong, in particular navigation light no. 119 outside Hoi Ha and the red and green bouys off Tap Mun Pier.

They appear to be a different group from those that are breeding at Mirs Bay.
Perhaps they could be wandering after a failed breeding attempt elsewhere.
