Birding watching and harvest sweet beat

    This morning we woke up at 5:30 and went to bird watching!!! The teacher teach us how to recognized different birds song. Most of songs come from male birds. Such as Yuhina, the song it sings just like it name;Taiwan sibia sings like "happy new year" and the eaziest to memerize is Walber's song which is '' you go back '' in chinese.

     Then we saw the net set by the researcher beside the road in order to catch Yuhina. But one bired was trapped in it. The researcher soon came to save it. It is white tail robin's juvenile and because it has blue feathers, it might be male when it grows up.

     Without using telescope, we finally can see alive Yuhina catch by the researcher. they are really cute. We watch them how to estimate bird's weight, tail length, peak length and how to inject a chip into it body.
