All,
If interested, I have a gallery of photos from a work trip to the Shanghai area 
over the full month of December. I was able to bird some around our plant in 
Hangzhou, and a couple of dedicated days of birding at Yancheng a few hours 
north of Shanghai at the very end of the trip. Species diversity wasnâ??t very 
high, just over 100 species for the entire trip. But, the quality of birds more 
than made up for it. I had 5 species of Cranes the last day I birded, as well 
as some other very tough birds like Japanese Waxwing, Ochre-rumped (Japanese 
Reed) Bunting, Japanese Grosbeak, Oriental Stork, and Reed Parrotbill. Several 
species of buntings and thrushes were common, as were Bluetails, Redstarts, 
etc. Rarest bird of the trip ironically, was a Snow Goose which is a major 
rarity to China.

My photos are all in chronological order, with many species represented 
multiple times. The gallery is here: http://www.pbase.com/mctodd/china_2010  Be 
sure the images are at the â??originalâ?? file size below the image, or the 
file compression on Pbase could take a serious toll on the images (which need 
all the help they can get anyway! :â??)

Hope you enjoy, and I apologize to anyone who doesnâ??t care to receive these 
types of emails.

Good Birding!!
