Tam Dao Bear Center, Raptor migration, babblers, 22/03/11

Hi all,

An exciting morning produced 2 big flocks of raptors (approx. 300 individuals totally) and needletails and hirundines.
- Oriental Honey Buzzard
- Black Baza
- Sparrowhawk sp. (too high)
- possible Grey-faced Buzzards
- 1 Hawk-eagle sp.
- lots of Silver-backed Needletails and Asian House Martins (possibly Nepal as well?)

Also around the center were,
- 4 Buff-breasted Babblers
- 2 Spot-necked Babblers
- 2 Puff-throated Babblers
- 1 Manchurian Bush Warbler

Cheers,
Falk
