I went to the almost-abandoned Changpin industrial zone last Sunday, where should be a very nice area for birds to rest and breeding all year around.
Unfortunately, local government's develop blue-print have it as an industrial area to attracting lcoal/foreign investments in late 80s.
Nowadays, Taiwan lost their competetion to China, which is why I say it's almost-abandoned becuase there're only few factories built up and it seems it's a good timing for local government to re-plan the use of this area.
Don't remember since when government is kind of interestingin the wind turbine, you can find it line-up along the beach.

See the scale of the wind turbine with my little jeep.

OK, let's have a look at the target bird that I was looking for - Little Tern




Not sure if these the eggs of Little Tern.

There are lots of Kentish Plover but not one of them were so friendly with my lens....

Migration Black-winged Stilt but now some of them are stay at this island




It's almost 37F that day while I took those shots, and it's all I can do before I got deep-fried by the sun ~~

Lovely shots but the growing number of wind turbines along the Taiwan coast, often in or close to IBAs, is of great concern.
Thanks, Mark
