1. White-tailed Tropicbird, 白尾鹲, 白尾熱帶鳥, Phaethon lepturus, シラオネッタイチョウ, Buntut-sate putih
A medium-sized white seabird with black marks on the wings and a yellow beak. The long white tail streamers are visible from a great distance. Nests on coastal and inland cliffs on the main islands. Often seen flying over canyons and along cliffs. At sea usually flies high above the water. Calls are loud clucks and squawks. Smaller and more graceful in flight than Red-tailed Tropicbird [Ebird]
中型白色海鸟，翅膀上有黑色斑纹，喙为黄色。长长的白色尾羽从远处即可见到。栖息于主要岛屿的沿海和内陆悬崖上。常见于峡谷上空和悬崖边飞翔。在海上通常飞得离水面较高。叫声为响亮的咯咯声和尖叫声。相比红尾鹱，这种鸟体型较小，飞行更为优雅。

One of the target birds can be found here, making it an incredibly beautiful location to observe this species. The view is breathtaking, and I hope to return again. While waiting for a better sighting of the bird, I was fortunate to also spot a Dugong, Green Turtle, and Spinner Dolphins. Watching this bird gracefully soar through the air is truly mesmerizing.
其中一种目标鸟可以在这里看到，这里是观赏这种鸟类的绝佳地点，风景非常优美，希望能再来一次。等待更好观鸟机会时，还幸运地看到了儒艮、绿海龟和飞旋海豚。这种鸟在空中优雅飞翔的姿态，实在令人着迷。
