Our latest trip to the rice fields along the Han River estuary (Musunsanseong to Yudo islet; rice fields West of Aegibong, Siam wetland) brought some nice views of waders in the newly-planted rice fields, though not in large numbers, as well as other typical summer birds, in particular egrets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notable were two Black-tailed Godwits and an unexpected Garganey among a group of Spot-billed Ducks in Siam wetland. Also, there were good views of Wood Sandpipers in the rice fields, as well as Common Greenshanks, Common Sandpipers and Black-faced Spoonbills. In the rice fields all kinds of egrets and herons (Great, Medium and Little as well as quite a few Cattle Egrets, Gray Heron as well as one Black-crowned Night Heron, and Chinese Pond Herons), with only the Striated Heron missing. Surprisingly no call from Oriental Reed Warblers, and no kingfishers \u2013 maybe due to the rapidly deteriorating habitat?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
