Title: Some unsure birds from Mai Po yesterday
Post by Neil on Aug 1st, 2006, 3:07pm
It was a beautiful afternoon at Mai Po yesterday although not too many birds at 16/17 as the tides were wrong. I photographed these few birds that I would like confirmation on.  Neil

Intermediate egret?
Common Sandpiper - juvenile?
Oriental Pratincole - juvenile?
