Summary
Black Kites are common birds of prey in Hong Kong, with almost 2000 wintering in this city every year. Why do Black Kites love to inhabit and breed in Hong Kong? This online sharing will allow you to better understand Black Kites by explaining their species and population in Hong Kong and the result of a series of surveys on their breeding behaviour. It will also introduce the work of the Kite Research Group of the Hong Kong Bird Watching Society.
