The 4th Asian Bird Fair is taking place this weekend, October 26-27th, at Guandu Nature Park, Taipei City. It is sure to be a well attended and fun event for all interested in birds.
Entry is free, but donations to Pheasant-tailed Jacana conservation welcome. Lectures, activities for kids etc etc...
