Long Valley, San Tin, Ho Man Tin 24 Oct 2021 - one birding in a month

Likely my only birding this month, mainly to enjoy my big brother's new car...

Nothing to lose, and nothing to gain. Birdless everywhere. Still thinking should I buy the A7IV to replace my D850 before I can go any trip.

No motivation to bird or twitch the Ruddy Shelduck. So I broke my lowest record in the Bird Weekend!

HK is the best place to do Virtual Birding

9 Oct 2021 - Oct Big Day and Global Bird Weekend day 2

Typhoon No. 8, so I didn't go out for birds but plan N, food and drink. What a memorable Oct Big Day.

I planned to try hard for the Bird Weekend but failed because of the weather.

Too ‘birdy’ here so no birding this long weekend, just sleep, eat, drink.
