The purpose of the ‘Birding in China’ website is to highlight the wonderful diversity of birds and habitats that exist here in China, using my own photographs to illustrate the variety of China’s avifauna. I arrived in China in 2008 and as such the nearly 2,000 photographs published on this website have been amassed over an extensive 15-year period, involving approaching 100 trips throughout the country, including all of China’s 23 Provinces, 5 Autonomous Regions, 2 Special Autonomous Regions and 4 Municipalities. I live and work in Shanghai, China, and am fortunate enough to have a very rewarding career in international retail which has supported my interest in the Birds of China.
