BBC Wild China 《發現新大陸》

Episode 6 includes a 4-minute footage of Mai Po and Deep Bay. There's a great time lapse sequence of a rising Deep Bay tide and a draining gei wai, Spoonbills feeding and large Avocet flocks against the Shenzhen backdrop. The filming was done in February 2006 and we (WWF) had to build a special floating raft for their cameraman (Mike Pitts) to get up close with the mudflat birds. Other than Mai Po, they went out close to the airport for Dolphin footage. Bena.

I wasn't able to watch the final episode last night, but I am told Pearl completely cut out the Mai Po gei wai and waterbird footage in order to save time for advertisements. Unbelievable! A missed opportunity to show the HK public just how special and unique the Deep Bay area is. Bena.
