The Avifauna of Hong Kong by the Hong Kong Birdwatching Society (2001)

Hong Kong has some of the lushest wetlands in the world that provide for 480 species of birds. 60% of them are migratory birds, which take on the epic journey between Siberia and northern China, as well as to the south every autumn and winter. As a major replenishment station, Hong Kong is a great place for witnessing this stunning natural event.

The Avifauna of Hong Kong is a comprehensive catalogue published by experts from the Hong Kong Birdwatching Society. It has accumulated 41 years of records and surveys (including the first breeding bird survey carried out in the city), detailed assessments of the status and distribution of each species, and comparisons made with data collated as far back as 1861.

The book also contains an assessment of the effect of the wild bird trade in Hong Kong, making it a great reference to the status of the birds of south China.
