Logged johnallcock BBS Member BBS Senior Member     Posts: 66 Re: Spot-billed Duck 斑嘴鴨 with Chicks « Reply #6 on: May 26th, 2006, 2:37pm » Quote Modify It's true that most HK ducks migrate further north to breed (wigeon, pintail, shoveler, teal, tufted etc), to Siberia or North-east China But as noted by Mike previously, zonorhyncha is widespread in China/Japan and haringtoni is mostly a South-east Asian taxon with HK at the NE limit of it's range.
