Bird News from Andreas Kim<\/strong><\/p>\n

The visit to the site in a grey morning with occasionally light rain showed not very many birds, but a good number of shorebird species on the natural tidal flat: 39 Bar-tailed Godwit<\/b> (the number during the week varied between 21 and 51), today only green leg-flagged BNN was seen. Earlier this week also an individual with an orange engraved leg-flag and code 3V was seen two times on the site. This bird was banded in 2011 and was seen in Mokpo every year since banding (see: Flagrecords Mokpo Namhang Urban Wetland<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Other shorebirds seen were: 7 Whimbrek<\/b>, c. 60 Dunlin<\/b>, 4 Terek Sandpiper<\/b>, 2 Great Knot<\/b>, 2 Sharp-tailed Sandpiper<\/b>, 2 Grey Plover<\/b>, 1 Common Greenshank<\/b>, 1 Common Sandpiper<\/b>, 4 Little Ringed Plover<\/b>, c. 20 Kentish Plover<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Several Grey Heron<\/b> and 3 Little Egret<\/b> were slowly wading through shallow waters while 3 Little Tern<\/b> were active hunting for fish. Eastern Spotbilled Duck<\/b> c. 50 and about 40 Eurasian Wigeon<\/b> with only a handful Common Teal<\/b> were largely on the water or resting on platforms. A few Black-tailed Gull<\/b> and Black-headed Gull<\/b> were also seen.<\/p>\n
