A day of talks with various environmental organizations in Songdo was interrupted by two pleasant short checks at the wetlands of Songdo. On Namdong reservoir, over 75 Black-faced Spoonbills were seen, together with more than 100 Common Shelducks, 50 Eurasian teals, and a mix of other ducks.<\/p>\n

At the Songdo tidal flat towards Sorae estuary, at least 4000 shorebirds were seen: Most frequent were Dunlins (with a large flock of more than 1000 birds and numerous smaller ones), but there were also Bar-tailed godwits, Grey plovers, Whimbrels, Kentish plovers, Far Eastern Curlew and Eurasian Oystercatchers, as well as Saunders\u2019s gulls and black-headed gulls, Vega gulls and Black-tailed gull.<\/p>\n
