[William Lim]

Hi,

Just came back from Seoul, Korea to give a talk in a symposium in Kyung Hee University and was lucky to get some bird shots at temperature of below zero. ;D
Hope you enjoy.

Wow, they got some really nice birds there! Wish I was there, too! :-)

Interesting Korean birds, William! Must be very challenging shooting in that cold temperature.

If you're curious on the IDs, have fun matching your shots with the searchable data base of the Oriental Bird Images:

nice shots william! the birds there looks as if they need a blanket compared to Romy's Cordillera shots

Well, I don't have time to do the ID's. The first is an Emberiza. The others should be recognisable.

The one that most interests us for the Philippines is the last one - ranges up North - Ixos amaurotis.
