4BWWB now 3966 km. Looks like she left Miranda around the 28th March. Photo of her last 3 migrations. She breeds on the North Slope and stages in the same place as 4BBRW. Looks like she's just a few days behind her usual.
1/ Our sincere thanks go to all those who supported our work for the very sensitive & easily disturbed Nationally & Globally Endangered Scaly-sided Merganser Mergus squamatus 호사비오리 in 2022, including kindly contributing to the winter survey in February, & providing funding
3/ 'Improving the Conservation Status of the Scaly-sided Merganser in the Republic of Korea(2022)'" which can now be accessed through the EAAFP website link below. The (prettier!) Korean version will be made available on the Birds Korea blog in the near future.
