Title: Report of the Shing Mun Outing on 6-10-02
Post by Forrest FONG on Oct 15^th, 2002, 10:23pm

Total 17 participants including some new faces attended the Shing Mun Outing held on 6-10-02 (Sunday). Although the winter monsoon had just arrived in the morning, very few migrants were seen ;>:(except a "bird-wave” of over 60 nos. of Scarlet Minivet and Grey-throated Minivet. As expected, a Sooty Flycatcher and a Grey-streaked Flycatcher were seen flying around at the area just next to the public toilet and the end of the trail. ;D

Birds seen on that day were:
*Japanese White-Eye
*Crested Bulbul
*Chinese Bulbul
*Black Kite
*Black Drongo
*Ashy Drongo (1 no.)
*Black-winged Cuckoo-shrike (1 no.)
*Hobby (2 nos.)
*Chestnut Bulbul
*Great Tit
*Flowerpecker sp.
*Sooty Flycatcher (1 no.)
*Great-streaked Flycatcher (1 no.)
*Asian Brown Flycatcher (1 no.)
*Yellow-browed Warbler (1 no.)
*Scarlet Minivet
*Grey-throated Minivet
*Hair-crested Drongo (1 no.)
(total 18 species)
