Black-faced Spoonbill
10,000 Birds
JANUARY 3, 2015
This happened in 2003 when 73 birds died from Avian Botulism. It breeds on a few rocky islands in the Yellow Sea off the west coast of North Korea. Other main wintering sites include Macau, Vietnam and Hong Kong. It was in Hong Kong, at the Mai Po reserve, that I had my encounters with Black-faced Spoonbills.
