Just arrived back from Lhasa.
This was my 5th visit to Tibet, and my 3rd to Lhasa.
I again took the "Sky Train" to Lhasa from Beijing, which takes 45 hours, but is well worth the effort (see http://www.chinesecurrents.com to find out more).
I've posted a few photos on to my website (people, places, birds, and a few animals).
Bird photos include:
Harman's Eared-Pheasant (at least 25 birds seen)
Lord Derby's Parakeet (at least 20 birds seen)
Severtzov's Tit-Warbler
Waddell's Babax
Hume's Groundpecker
Prince Henri's Laughingthrush
Pallas's Gull
Robin Accentor
Brown Accentor
Ibisbill
Himalayan Griffon Vulture (c50 seen one morning)
