Further details or change(s) of outings/indoor meetings will be announced in this website and the HKBWS Forums.   Please check them several days before the meeting to confirm attendance, otherwise you may miss out on changes in timing. The [ X ] rating conveys the degree of difficulty in each outing in terms of seeing the birds; Members are of course more than welcome to attend any event.

Those using their own transport please also send in their booking slips, the Mai Po tour coordinator - this is important because the maximum number of members who can attend the outing is 50, as set by the AFCD permit. Failure to do so may result in being refused access to the reserve.
