Morning in Ba Vi
Arriving at Ba Vi to a fine sunny morning, we were quick to head up the top track towards the temple. We were back 30 minutes later, as it was just too windy up top. Pretty much the only bird we had seen was a female Small Niltava, which thankfully was a lifer for both of us. Later, we added a male as well. We slowly birded down the road (amongst the multitude of weekend traffic, cars and bikes) and added a few birds. These including an Orange-headed Thrush, a couple of Dark-sided Flycatchers, two Gray-throated Babblers, four species of Bulbul (Black, Black crested, Puff-throated and Red-whiskered). Mid-morning a flight of 6 Oriental Honey Buzzards went over. We had a lovely morning, and we were back in Hanoi in time for lunch.

Lenin Park, 9-10-2011
Hi all,
Apart from seeing a young guy having a walk with his approx. 2 year old Stump-tailed Macaque, it was actually quite nice to check Lenin Park on a busy Sunday.
5 Oriental Honey Buzzards and 3 Purple Herons were soaring overhead, as was a flock of Barn Swallows and an unidentified Riparia-species.
The corner near the circus held 1 Wryneck, 1 Asian Brown Flycatcher, 2 Brown Shrikes and 1 Siberian Stonechat.
Around the toilets there were 1 Forest Wagtail, 1 Dark-sided Flycatcher, 1 Grey-headed Canary Flycatcher and another Asian Brown Flycatcher, as well as one Ashy Drongo.
One Striated Heron flew across the lake.
Cheers,
Falk
