1. Black Stork, 黑鸛, Ciconia nigra, ナベコウ
2. Red-vented Bulbul, 黑喉红臀鹎, 黑喉紅臀鵯, Pycnonotus cafer, シリアカヒヨドリ
A dark, sleek, medium-sized bird with a black crest and a white rump. The red color under the tail is often difficult to see. Eats fruit, flower buds, and insects. Conspicuous and sometimes gregarious, often seen high in trees or perched on wires in urban and rural areas; generally prefers scrubby edge habitat instead of dense forest. Calls include a variety of chirps and whistles. Native to South and Southeast Asia. Introduced to Kuwait, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Oman, and some Polynesian islands, including Hawaii. [Ebird]

It seems this bird is quite common in the region—I may have seen it before in Sri Lanka or somewhere else. Still, it’s great to spot our first bird here after a long journey and a relaxing stay at the homestay in Baihualing, Yunnan, China.
I’ve quickly adapted to the setup (Canon R1), and capturing these in-flight shots felt almost seamless. The bird flew straight toward us, and I managed to get all 19 frames perfectly in focus.
这只鸟似乎在这个地区很常见——我可能之前在斯里兰卡或其他地方见过。不过，在经过长途旅行和在云南百花岭的民宿放松之后，看到我们的第一只鸟还是很令人欣喜。
我很快就适应了设备，拍摄这些飞行中的镜头几乎毫不费力。这只鸟径直朝我们飞来，我成功拍下了所有19张清晰的照片。
3. Great Barbet, 大拟啄木鸟, 大擬啄木, Psilopogon virens, オオゴシキドリ
This largest of the barbets is colorful, but often appears all-dark from a distance. No other barbet in its range combines the features of a massive pale bill, black head, and dark olive back. Sluggish and shy; tends to stick to dense forest canopy, where it is difficult to see. Its loud hooting song (typically a series of two repetitive notes) is often the only indication of this species’s presence. Also gives a harsh, screaming “karrrrr” that has a gull-like quality. [Ebird]
这只最大的拟啄木鸟色彩鲜艳，但从远处看通常呈现出全黑的外观。在其分布范围内，没有其他拟啄木鸟同时具备巨大的浅色喙、黑色头部和深橄榄色背部的特征。行动迟缓且羞怯，倾向于停留在浓密的森林树冠中，难以被发现。它响亮的鸣叫声（通常是两个重复音符组成的一系列声音）往往是表明其存在的唯一线索。同时，它还发出一种粗厉、尖锐的“karrrrr”叫声，带有类似海鸥的音质。
update 202412
I’ve seen this bird many times in various places but never had the chance to capture a photo—until now. Here, we finally had numerous opportunities to take some great shots.
Seeing the photo afterward was a completely different kind of excitement, as the vibrant colors that define the bird truly stood out. Simply incredible!
我曾在许多地方见过这只鸟，但一直没有机会拍照。直到现在，这里终于给了我们很多机会，拍到了几张很棒的照片。
回头看照片时，那种兴奋感完全不同，鸟儿的鲜艳色彩展现得淋漓尽致，简直太棒了！

4. Cachar Wedge-billed Babbler, 楔嘴鹩鹛, 紋胸楔嘴鷯鶥, Stachyris roberti, チャイロキリハシチメドリ
A gregarious babbler with a dark back and underparts spangled with scaly silver markings. At first glance, may resemble a cupwing, but this babbler is much larger and longer-tailed, and does not stick as closely to the ground as cupwings do. Often moves deep in dense shrubbery, but will occasionally forage in the middle layers of the forest as well, scaling trees and creeping along branches. [Ebird]
One of the stunning babblers has such flat body feather details that it almost resembles a drawing.
一种群居的鸟，背部和腹部呈深色，并点缀着鳞状银色斑纹。乍一看，它可能与短翅鸫相似，但这只画眉鸟体型更大，尾巴更长，而且不像短翅鸫那样紧贴地面活动。通常在茂密的灌木丛深处活动，但偶尔也会在森林的中层觅食，攀爬树木，沿着树枝移动。[Ebird]
其中一只鸟的羽毛细节看起来如此平滑，几乎像一幅画。
update 202412
An 8-day journey to Yunnan, particularly to this bird photography paradise, is almost at its end. As expected, capturing great photos of many species was as simple as sitting and waiting. However, a bit of luck was still needed. According to local, the number of bird species visiting has decreased, and with more hides available, the birds may now spread out instead of gathering in the usual spots. Regardless, we thoroughly enjoyed our authentic photography experience here.
Although the trip isn’t over yet, this moment stands out as one of my favorites. The bird was incredibly active, appearing for just a split second with an almost surreal “flat” look to its body—like a 2D drawing. But with patience, it rewarded us with some fantastic views as the day drew to a close.
为期八天的云南之旅，尤其是在这个鸟类摄影天堂，已接近尾声。正如预期的那样，只需静静地坐着等待，就能轻松拍到许多鸟类的精彩照片。不过，运气也不可或缺。据当地人介绍，前来的鸟种数量有所减少，而且随着隐蔽观测点的增多，鸟类可能会分散到不同的藏身处，而不再像以前那样集中。但无论如何，我们都非常享受这次真实而纯粹的摄影之旅。
虽然旅程尚未结束，但这绝对是我此次旅行中最喜欢的瞬间之一。这只鸟非常活跃，刚出现时仅一瞬间，身体看上去几乎是平面的，就像一幅2D画作。然而，在耐心等待之后，它在接近一天结束时，终于给了我们许多精彩的展示。
5. Slaty-bellied Tesia, 金冠地莺, 金冠地鶯, Tesia olivea, クロハラコビトサザイ
Update 202412
This tiny bird moves swiftly through the bushes, making it incredible that we managed to spot it.
It’s a bird everyone on this trip has been eager to photograph. Yesterday, only Amy and I were lucky enough to capture it, while others could only catch a glimpse without getting any photos. However, luck was on our side today! Two different Tesias came close to us within just 15 minutes, giving everyone the chance they had been hoping for. Tonight, we can all sleep soundly, content with the experience.
这只小鸟在灌木丛中快速穿梭，真是令人惊叹，我们竟然能发现它。
这是本次旅程中每个人都渴望拍摄的一只鸟。昨天只有我和另一位女士（Amy）幸运地拍到了它，其他人只能匆匆一瞥，却没能拍下照片。然而，今天幸运降临了！两只不同的地莺在15分钟内先后靠近我们，让大家终于得偿所愿。今晚，我们都可以心满意足地安然入睡了。
6. Yellow-bellied Fairy-Fantail, 黄腹扇尾鹟, 黃腹扇尾鶲, Chelidorhynx hypoxanthus, キバラオウギビタキ
An active little bird with a bright yellow belly and a pale-tipped fan-like tail. Most common in foothill and submontane broadleaf forests, where it forages energetically and acrobatically in the middle and lower levels, often with fulvettas, warblers, and other small passerines in mixed-species foraging flocks. Very similar in shape to fantails but much smaller, and actually more closely related to tits. Song is a series of high “tsit” notes interspersed with twitters and trills. Call is often repeated at length, akin to a song, but much simpler, a series of high “tsip” notes. [Ebird]

One of the most active birds, behaving much like a fantail. While it’s not a lifer for me—I previously recorded it in Northern Thailand—it’s still a challenge to spot here in Yunnan, China. Thankfully, luck was on our side, and we managed to witness it spreading its tail, giving us a few great moments for some good photo opportunities.
这是一只非常活跃的小鸟，行为举止有点像扇尾鹟。虽然对我来说不算新记录（之前在泰国北部拍摄过），但在中国云南也并不容易拍到。不过幸运的是，我们得以目睹它展开尾羽的瞬间还给了我们一些宝贵的拍摄机会。
7. Bianchi’s Warbler, 比氏鹟莺, 比氏鶲鶯, Phylloscopus valentini, インドシナモリムシクイ
One of a number of mind-numbingly similar Seicercus warblers. Greenish-yellow above and bright yellow below, with a faint wingbar, a yellow eyering, and a grayish crown marked by two black stripes. Gray of the crown is weaker than that of White-spectacled and Plain-tailed Warblers, but this feature is difficult to see in the shade of the understory, where it usually forages. Breeds in submontane and montane forest up to the treeline; averages higher Martens’s Warbler. Descends into submontane and hill forest in the non-breeding season. Song is an unremarkable but lively burst of whistled notes, lower in pitch than that of Plain-tailed Warbler. [Ebird]
一种看起来极为相似的冠鹛类鸟（Seicercus）。上体呈绿色偏黄，下体明黄色，带有一条淡淡的翼斑、黄色的眼圈以及灰色的头顶，头顶上还有两条黑色条纹。头顶的灰色比白眶鹛（White-spectacled Warbler）和单尾鹛（Plain-tailed Warbler）更弱，但在其常活动的林下阴影处，这一特征难以看清。繁殖季节栖息于亚山地和山地森林中，分布高度可达森林界限；平均分布高度比马氏鹛（Martens’s Warbler）更高。非繁殖季节会下迁至亚山地和丘陵森林。鸣声是轻快的、普通的哨音片段，音高低于单尾鹛的鸣声。
update 202412
A tiny warbler with a sudden flash of “yellowish” plumage appeared, and I immediately thought, “It’s a new bird!” Naturally, everyone quickly grabbed their cameras to capture it. It only showed up briefly while we were casually waiting for birds to come to the water.
一只小小的、突然出现的“泛黄色”的鹛类鸟，让我立刻想到：“新鸟！”于是大家赶紧举起相机拍摄。这只鸟只出现了一会儿，当时我们其实只是在随意等候鸟类来饮水。
#####
8. Small Niltava, 小仙鹟, 小仙鶲, Niltava macgrigoriae, チビアオヒタキ
Size distinguishes this species from other niltavas; coloration is quite similar to Large Niltava, which is double the size. Male Small Niltava is bright blue with the brightest patches on the shoulder and forehead. Female is brown with a white eyering and a rufous tail and wingtips. Forages in the lower and middle levels of hilly and montane forests, usually singly. Listen for its distinctive song, a cleanly descending “wee-dee-dee.” [EBird]
体型将该物种与其他仙鹟区分开来；其颜色与大型仙鹟非常相似，但体型只有后者的一半。雄性小仙鹟呈亮蓝色，肩部和前额的亮色斑块最为显眼。雌性则为棕色，具有白色眼圈以及棕红色的尾巴和翼尖。通常单独在丘陵和山地森林的中下层觅食。其独特的鸣声是清晰下滑的“wee-dee-dee”。
update 202412
Another bird we encountered, found only at a single hide despite visiting many others, initially appeared quite shy. However, after a few hours of brief appearances, it gradually became more comfortable and eventually stayed long enough for some great photos.
另一只我们在众多拍摄点中仅在一个鸟点发现的鸟，起初显得相当害羞。然而，经过几个小时的短暂现身后，它逐渐变得放松，最终停留足够长的时间让我们拍下了好照片。
9. Scarlet Finch, 血雀, Carpodacus sipahi, シュイロマシコ
update 202412
We chose this hide specifically for this bird and spotted it early in the morning. Afterward, we decided to move to another hide. The male arrived briefly before leaving, but luck was on our side as we caught the moment.
我们特意选择了这个鸟塘点来寻找这只鸟，并很快就看到了它。随后，我们决定换到另一个鸟塘。雄鸟很快到达又离开，但幸运的是，我们抓住了这个瞬间。

One of the standout birds at Baihualing, Yunnan, China is often seen as a highlight by both locals and visitors. Whenever someone spots or photographs one, it becomes big news in the village, quickly drawing bird enthusiasts and photographers to the area. This one shows up unexpectedly, as it did this time to take a drink, it captivates everyone around. It is a beautiful bird, with the female being particularly striking.
在中国云南百花岭，这种突出的鸟类常常被认为是当地居民和游客的亮点之一。每当有人发现或者拍摄到它时，就会在村里引起轰动，很快吸引大量鸟类爱好者和摄影爱好者前来。这次它出乎意料地出现，来喝水，吸引了周围所有人的目光。这是一种美丽的鸟，雌鸟尤其引人注目。
10. Chestnut-headed Tesia, 栗头地莺, 栗頭地鶯, Cettia castaneocoronata, クリガシラコビトサザイ
update 202412
This is a fairly common bird in the area, but it moves too quickly to capture good shots. It often hides in dark and damp spots, making it a wonderfully active but elusive subject.
这是一种在这里相当常见的鸟，但它动作太快，很难拍到好照片。它经常躲在阴暗潮湿的地方，是一只活泼而难以捉摸的鸟。
11. Himalayan Shortwing, 喜山短翅鸫, 喜山短翅鶇, Brachypteryx cruralis, ヒマラヤコバネヒタキ
Tiny, stumpy bird of dense undergrowth. Male is dark slate-blue with broad white eyebrows that give him the appearance of a furious little old man. Female is warm pale brown all over. In areas of overlap with Chinese and Lesser Shortwings, look out for the all-dark lower belly, which is white in those species. Inhabits hill and montane forest, where it forages in dense undergrowth, frequently in proximity to streams. Song is composed of high thin whistles with short bursts of clicking chattering mixed in.
矮小、圆胖的小鸟，常见于茂密的林下灌丛。雄鸟为深蓝灰色，带有宽阔的白色眉线，使其看起来像一位愤怒的小老头。雌鸟则呈温暖的浅棕色。在与中华短翅和小短翅分布重叠的地区，可以通过其全黑的下腹部（而其他两种为白色）进行区分。栖息于丘陵和山地森林中，常在密集的灌丛中觅食，通常靠近溪流。鸣声由高音的细哨音组成，并混有短促的点击和叽喳声。
update 202412
While everyone was focused on a few main target birds, one of our buddies, who could be considered a new birder, suddenly shouted, “Shortwing!” He was so proud of himself for identifying a bird on his own. Honestly, I think he should be even happier if he managed to spot a rare bird feeding instead!
当大家都专注于几种主要目标鸟时，我们的一位朋友（可以算是新手观鸟者）突然大喊：“短翅鸫！” 他为自己能独立认出一只鸟感到非常自豪。老实说，我觉得如果他发现+认出鸟种，他应该会比在喂食店拍到稀有鸟种更加高兴！
12. Collared Scops-Owl, 领角鸮, 領角鴞, Otus lettia, ヒガシオオコノハズク
Medium-sized owl with significant variation in plumage and vocalizations across its large range. Either gray or brown in coloration, with prominent pale ear tufts and pale face outlined in black. Fond of open wooded habitats from lowlands to foothills, often found roosting in temples, houses, and gardens, particularly in rural areas. Larger and more strongly tufted than both Oriental and Mountain Scops-Owls; both also lack the black facial border. Listen for this species’ incisive, short hoots, given at well-spaced intervals (often around 10 seconds). [Ebird]
中型猫头鹰，其羽毛和叫声因广泛分布范围而显著变化。体色为灰色或棕色，头部有明显的浅色耳簇和黑色勾勒的浅色面盘。喜欢开阔的林地栖息地，从低地到丘陵都有分布，常见于庙宇、民居和乡村花园中栖息。与东方领角鸮和高山领角鸮相比，此种猫头鹰体型更大，耳簇更为显著，并具有独特的黑色面盘边缘。其叫声为短促而清晰的鸣叫，间隔较长（通常约10秒一次）。
update 202412
It is quite a common bird, even in Malaysia. It was previously classified as the Sunda Scops-Owl but is now considered part of the Collared Scops-Owl. We often had one just outside our room, almost every day.
There is always debate about using torches or flashlights on birds, with no clear consensus on whether it is right or wrong for nature. However, there are certain actions we should never take or support, such as keeping them in cages or tying them up. It’s disheartening to know that many people still do such things, often just for the sake of a photograph.
它是一种相当常见的鸟类，即使在马来西亚也能见到。之前被归类为巽他领角鸮，现在被认为是领角鸮的一部分。我们几乎每天都能在房间外看到它。
关于是否可以用手电筒或闪光灯照射鸟类，总是存在争论，且很难得出明确的对错结论。然而，有些事情是我们绝对不应该做或参与的，例如将它们关在笼子里或绑起来。令人难过的是，很多人为了拍一张照片，仍然在做这样的事情。
13. White-gorgeted Flycatcher, 白喉姬鹟, 白喉姬鶲, Anthipes monileger, ノドジロヒタキ
Tiny brown flycatcher with a triangular white bib bordered with black. Gray head, frosty white brow, and ruddy wings and tail are not as eye-catching as the throat patch, but just as distinctive. Unobtrusive and retiring, generally keeping to the dense lower levels of foothill forests. Frequently forages in inaccessible gorges and thick streamside vegetation. Usually seen singly, occasionally in pairs. [Ebird]
小型棕色鹟类，喉部有一个三角形的白色领结，周围勾勒着黑色边缘。灰色的头部、霜白色的眉纹以及红棕色的翅膀和尾巴虽然不如喉部斑块引人注目，但同样具有辨识度。性格低调且隐秘，通常活动于丘陵森林的浓密下层。经常在难以接近的峡谷和茂密的溪流旁植被中觅食。通常单独活动，偶尔成对出现。
update 202412
The last lifer of the tour was an adorable flycatcher, easily recognizable by the distinct triangular white patch on its neck.
此次行程中的最后一只新物种是一只可爱的鹟类，它颈部显眼的三角形白斑格外醒目。
14. Rufous-throated Partridge, 红喉山鹧鸪, 紅喉山鷓鴣, Arborophila rufogularis, ノドアカミヤマテッケイ
A beautiful little gamebird of foothill and highland forests with extensive ground-level cover, where it moves about in medium-sized convoys through the dense undergrowth. Usually quiet, though sings melodically and loudly at dusk and dawn. Brightly-colored, even for a partridge; both sexes have a bright orange throat, a bluish-gray chest, and orange-and-white spotting on the sides [Ebird]
一种美丽的小型‘鸡“，生活在有着茂密地面植被的山麓和高地森林中，常成中等规模的小群体在浓密的灌丛中活动。通常较安静，但在黄昏和黎明时会发出悦耳而洪亮的歌声。相对于其他鹧鸪，这种鸟颜色
update 202412
At almost every hide we visited, the owners assured us that this bird is always around. However, we didn’t spot it at any of those hides, except on day one when it briefly walked past. Hopefully, everyone on our team managed to capture a photo of this beautiful partridge.
几乎每个我们去的鸟塘，主人都会告诉我们这只鸟总是在这里。然而，除了第一天它匆匆走过外，我们在其他任何地方都没有看到它。希望我们团队的每个人都能拍到这只美丽鹧鸪的照片。
15. Gray Bushchat, 灰林䳭, 灰叢鴝, Saxicola ferreus, ヤマザキヒタキ
Small songbird of forest edges, open scrub, and farmland, usually seen in pairs or small flocks. Male is silvery gray overall with black face and white supercilium, throat, belly, and wing patches. Female dull brown overall, with a rufous tail and faded version of the male’s head pattern. Bold but not very active, usually seen perching for long periods on posts and overhead wires. Song is bright and melodious, but often has a somewhat faltering quality, trailing off towards the end. Most common call is a harsh rising “bzeeet!”. [EBird]
小型鸣禽，栖息于森林边缘、灌丛及农田，通常成对或小群活动。雄鸟全身呈银灰色，具黑色脸部及白色眉纹、喉部、腹部和翼斑。雌鸟整体为暗褐色，尾部呈红褐色，头部花纹为雄鸟的淡化版。性格大胆但不太活跃，常长时间栖息于柱子和电线之上。鸣声明亮悦耳，但常带有些许不连贯感，结尾逐渐消失。最常见的叫声是一声粗哑上扬的“bzeeet！”。
update 202412
During one of the quieter moments while waiting for a Scarlet Finch, a female caught my attention. As it flew around, I decided to enable Continuous Pre-record mode, just in case. Suddenly, it spread its wings, and I seized the perfect moment to press the shutter after see the action, capturing this stunning shot.
在等待血雀的一段安静时光中，一只雌鸟吸引了我的注意力。当它在周围飞舞时，我决定启用连续预录模式以防万一。突然，它张开翅膀，我看到这一瞬间立刻按下快门，捕捉到了这张精彩的照片。
16. Scaly-breasted Cupwing, 鳞胸鹪鹛, 大鱗胸鷦鶥, Pnoepyga albiventer, ヒメサザイチメドリ
Adorable tiny bird that loosely resembles a minute tailless wren. Warm dark brown above with rufous overtones, and scaled below; pale-morph birds have white edgings to black “scales,” while dark-morph birds have edgings that are coffee-stain tan. Smaller Pygmy Cupwing lacks the tan spots speckling the crown and neck of Scaly-breasted. Scaly-breasted inhabits dark, damp areas in dense forest, often around boulders, streams, and ravines. Song is a jumbled series of high-pitched melodic warbles, notably more complex than the song of Pygmy Cupwing. [Ebird]
可爱的小鸟，外形有点像一只没有尾巴的微型鹪鹩。上体为暖棕色，带有红褐色调，下体有鳞状纹；浅色型鸟黑色“鳞片”边缘为白色，而深色型鸟则为咖啡色边缘。与小棕林鸲相比，鳞胸棕林鸲的头顶和颈部缺乏棕色斑点。鳞胸棕林鸲栖息于浓密森林中阴暗潮湿的区域，通常出现在巨石、溪流和峡谷附近。鸣唱是一连串高音调的悦耳啁啾，比小鹪鹛的鸣声更复杂。
update 202412
On our last day in Baihualing, we spotted two distinctly different tiny, tailless birds. At a distance of about 10-15 meters, I initially assumed they were the same Pygmy Cupwing. However, upon reviewing the captured photos, it was clear they were different species.
Knowing their behavior of spreading their wings when moving, I enabled Continuous Pre-record mode and pressed the shutter the moment the bird moved. Got it!
在白花岭的最后一天，我们发现了两只明显不同的小型无尾鸟。由于距离大约在10-15米，我起初以为它们是同一种小鳞胸鹪鹛。然而，当查看拍摄的照片时，发现它们明显是不同的物种。
了解到它们在移动时会张开翅膀的行为特点，我启用了连续预录模式，并在鸟儿移动的瞬间按下快门。抓拍成功！
17. Blue-throated Barbet, 蓝喉拟啄木鸟, 藍喉擬啄木, Psilopogon asiaticus, アオノドゴシキドリ
A common inhabitant of lowland and foothill tropical forests, where it sings brightly but often unseen from the canopy; listen for its repeated 3- or 4-syllabled ‘took-o-rrook!’ Tends to be more common in edge areas and degraded forests than other barbets. Bright green with a blue throat, a red-and-yellow crown, and a heavy, pale-based bill. Birds at the northern and western parts of this species’ range have a black brow, while southern birds don’t. [Ebird]
一种常见于低地和丘陵热带森林的鸟类，常躲在树冠中鸣唱，声音清亮但不易被看到；它的叫声为重复的三到四音节“took-o-rrook!”。与其他拟啄木鸟相比，它更常出现在林缘地区和退化森林中。羽毛鲜绿色，喉部为蓝色，头顶有红黄相间的斑块，喙粗壮且基部呈浅色。在分布范围的北部和西部，这种鸟有黑色的眉纹，而南部的鸟则没有。
update 202412
A vibrant bird with a predominantly blue head, commonly found in BaiHuaLing, Yunnan, China. Its calls are nearly constant throughout the area, and it occasionally comes down to forage for food and water.
一种色彩鲜艳的鸟，头部以蓝色为主，在中国云南百花岭蛮普通。它的叫声在该地区几乎不间断，并且偶尔会下来觅食和喝水。
18. Slender-billed Scimitar-Babbler, 剑嘴鹛, 細嘴鉤嘴鶥, Pomatorhinus superciliaris, ハシナガチメドリ
Possibly the species to which the moniker of “scimitar-babbler” attaches most fittingly, as this inhabitant of high-altitude evergreen forests has a bill shaped like a curved sword. Predominantly orange-brown, with a gray head and jagged white eyebrow. Easily identified, even if seen only in silhouette; no other babbler in its range has such a long, sharply curved bill. Moves through the lower levels of the forest in large, noisy flocks. [ebird]
这可能是最符合“弯嘴鹛”这个名字的物种，因为它栖息于高海拔常绿林中，嘴巴形状像一把弯曲的剑。主要为橙棕色，头部呈灰色，眉线为锯齿状的白色。即使只看到剪影也很容易辨认；在其分布范围内，没有其他鹛类具有如此又长又弯的喙。通常以大型嘈杂的群体活动于森林的下层。
update 202412
This bird has an oddly thin and curved beak, giving it a truly unique appearance. Though active, it’s not hard to spot here. At many bird hides, it readily comes out to grab food before retreating, making it relatively easy to see and photograph.
这只鸟有着奇特的纤细弯曲喙，外形非常独特。虽然活跃，但在这里并不难见到。在许多观鸟点，它会很容易地出来抓食然后离开，因此相对容易观察和拍摄。
19. Yellow-cheeked Tit, 黄颊山雀, 黃頰山雀, Machlolophus spilonotus, セボシカンムリガラ
这只来自云南百花岭的鸟，拥有鲜艳夺目的色彩和迷人的冠羽，既活跃又美丽，十分迷人。
