    Hi Tom, Congratulations on the V2.0 of Birds of Dalian. Love to get my hands on it. You will be definitely missed but you have set the bar and passed on the torch to the next generation of Dalian. It's always good to be back at home. Happy Birding!

    A fantastic article on the Chinese Egret, Tom. Really liked it. A simple and very efficient article.

    The Red-breasted Thrush is such a jewel. Great stuff as usual, Tom.

    Cool stuff, Tom. Both birding wise and weather wise.

    Can't agree more! Lovely shot Tom. We also had a good influx of Robins n Thrushes over the weekend but nothing compared to that no of the White-eyes. :t:

    "Falco" time at Jinshitan although my favourite is the Black-browed Reed Warbler.

    Saw Terry's post in FB couple of days ago. Good to see the Yellow-breasted Bunting. One more question to ya Tom, Do you have any breeding Eurasian Oystercatcher's up there?(including previous years)

    Jinshitan is back in action! Superb stuff Tom. I had 4 Chinese Egrets in May, my first highest count in Shanghai but that itself sent me drooling for the rest of the season. 100 Egrets will definitely drive me crazy. The Long-billed Plover's bill definitely looks long enough. Good luck for the...

    Lot of action going on in your part of China, Tom. Also, good Samaritan work on the Gull.

    Some lovely shots Tom. I guess you are enjoying a great weather. There were three Northern Lapwings in SH last weekend which was clear sign of their northward journey, your no's are awesome.

    Hi Owen, "Birds of East Asia" by Mark Brazil is the book you have to go after. I must also point out that Tom has authored his own book on Jinshitan. Second edition will be in decks soon which i'm eagerly waiting for.

    Tom, i suggest you to start "The Number games", those Thrushes are fantastic and them being out in the open in those no's is ridiculous including the Shelducks. It's one of those "#Never seen them myself" moment. As Jonathan said, it will work great if you leave the hide for the birds to get...

    I always wondered how you managed these shots. Fantastic shots.

    Missed out the action from the East-North(DongBei). First things first, congrats on the Lapland Bunting, Tom. They are not the best looking Buntings in Winter but definitely "must die for" in their nuptial plumage. The Bluethroat in post #1204, is it regular for them to be up there this late...

    Belated Pied Harrier Day Tom and sorry about your ankle. Very bad timing when the season is jus kicking in. Your list is growing up on me.

    Sounds like the raptor festival is about to kick-in.

    Thanks for clarifying the Dunlin Tom, i could now see the black belly after you pointed out, i wil check my eyes over the weekend ;-) Superb variety of birds you have now. Along with Mike, i'm also in his team for your Chinese Egret, haven't got a satisfying view yet. Love those Godwits lined up...

    As Gretchen said, too many male Bluetails you have now. In post #1033, after looking at those Kentish Plover flock for few dozen times, still could not find the Dunlin. Do you have Dunlin among them?

    Bird Watching gives absolute pleasure at this time, isn't it Tom? The no's are superb.

    Good photos even in bad light. Tom, how is the oriental greenfinches up there for you? Last year i had good no's in Shanghai but this year haven't seen them yet.
