Birding Balangshan, Sichuan, China (part 3)

10,000 Birds

I still do not like monkeys very much. The bird was trying to look stately, dignified, and menacing, which was not very convincing after we had just watched it failing to catch some prey on the ground.

10,000 Birds

These are the tradeoffs of modern life in China. Among all mammals, I think I like monkeys the least. There is quite a bit of construction going on, so in the future, the park may become much more accessible to tourists, and at the same time much less attractive for shy birds (and their birder followers).
