Mt. Dasyueshan, more birds on the 1st day

The rest of the afternoon we stayed at another pheasant location, hoping to see the Mikado Pheasant.
Wayne and I sat quietly on the cold rocks (the thermometer had sagged a couple of inches) till there was no more light. A small glimpse of a female Mikado from 100m down was all we got, but there were other birds.



White-eared Sibia, endemic



Taiwan Yuhina, endemic



Taiwan striped squirrel



Vinaceous Rosefinch









Spotted or Eurasian Nutcracker

Steere's Liocichlia, another Taiwan endemic. I couldn't get a better picture than this.
I'll have to get back here and try harder.
