SBWR, LCK3 06Mar21

From KH

Danny and I went to Sungei Buloh this morning in search for Black-naped Oriole diffusus subspecies. JS was there too doing his Kranji Nature Trail census.

Adult Black-naped Oriole of both local subsp. maculatus and migrant subsp. diffusus are not easy to tell apart, with the key ID feature being the extent of yellow on the outer edge of the inner secondaries and tertials (more extensive for the migrant). Here's an adult Black-naped Oriole with a male Pink-necked Green-Pigeon.

JS then went to Lim Chu Kang Lane 3 and got the Green Sandpiper!

Off Danny and I went to LCK3, but we were too late, the bird's gone into hiding.

After lunch, Danny, JS and I went back to LCK3, but no greenie still. Next time..
