We’ll have Fire-breasted Flowerpeckers (紅胸啄花鳥) in September.

Taiwan Forestry Bureau (#林務局) calendar.

The Forestry Bureau’s (#林務局) 2021 calendar is on sale now - and will probably sell out very quickly.

See their website or Facebook page (in Chinese only...) for where to purchase.

October’s Jay and Formosan Striped #squirrel.

This calendar transports us to the superb Shei-Pa Nat Pk (雪霸國家公園 #SPNP). Home to Snow Mountain (雪山, accessed from Wuling Farm 武陵農場), and Daba (大霸尖山) shown here and on the NT$ 500 bill.

The landlocked salmon are easier to see than this Tawny Fish Owl (黃魚鴞)!!!

This is one of the proposals for a new #Taiwanese passport (we need a new design).

Of course I’m happy to see a Mikado Pheasant in between a Sambar Deer, Formosan Black Bear, and cherry blossoms.
