Birdwatching in Hanoi Botanical Garden (22 February, 2014)

A very small park but good place to see Japanese Thrush.  Somehow, I saw only males. 

小さな公園だが、ハノイ市内では数少ない緑地なのだろう、それなりに鳥が集まっていた。中でも、クロツグミ(約5羽)、クロウタドリ(3羽)は見もので、楽しめた。White-throated Fantailがこんな都市公園にいるのも初めて見た。

  1. Hi,

    I really enjoy your blog and I am writing to ask if you would consider contributing as a Guest Blogger to my new website that my team and I are currently working on.

    We are launching The Urban Birder Club later in the summer. It will be an online resource for Urban Birders everywhere and will feature all the information that an Urban Birder would want. From urban sightings news to conservation issues affecting the urban birding global village to the latest offers and discounts. It will be the first of it’s kind in the world and hopefully, serve a valuable purpose.

    We are also featuring guest blogs from bloggers like yourself, so to that end I would like you invite you to send us a blog for future publishing. We are looking for pieces between 600-800 words with pictures – if you can supply them and hold the copyright.

    The pieces should not be time sensitive i.e ‘My day on the patch yesterday’ but can be general i.e ‘ Santiago in the summertime’.

    We are specifically looking for pieces on the following subjects:

    General Urban Birding – a piece simply about the joys and occasional woes of urban birding.

    Urban Birding Tips – your personal advice and experience to help make urban birding even more enjoyable.

    Connecting with the public - your views and work towards getting city folk involved with nature. Getting volunteers, convincing politians, influencing industry and engaging ethnic minorities.

    Urban Bird Conservation – the latest research and conservation measures regarding urban ornithology. Note that our audience will be largely enthusiastic amateurs so please angle your piece towards laypeople and not scientists.

    My patch – an introduction to your local urban patch and the birds that you have found there.

    Urban art – a great chance to showcase your latest art project whether it be photography, painting, sculpturing or graffiti.

    You can either originate a piece or send our Guest Blog Editor a blog that you have previously written. If you are interested then please let us know and supply your piece to us by May 31st 2014.

    The address is: rick@theurbanbirder.com

    Many thanks

    David Lindo
