| 6/15+16/12 Binjiang Forest Park, Shanghai area, China: A beautiful park along the river, it has both cultivated spots and some wilder areas which were great to see. We saw a good variety of birds here but all were very skittish. A great walking park and quieter due to the lack of kids activities and no fishing and no pets. |
| 6/13/12 Century Park, Shanghai area, China: They have prettied up Century Park with lots of flowers. |
| 6/5/12 More pics from Yancheng Red-Crowned Crane Nature Reserve: Great birding place; not much shade in the summer. Also: wet market and rice drying on the roadways. |
| 5/25/12 Xijiao State Guest Hotel, Shanghai, China: A pretty place with very quiet grounds, large trees, a lake, and other water ways. |
| 6/17/12 Changfeng Park, Shanghai, China: A very BUSY park - tho it was visited on a Sunday - with very little wildlife. |
| 6/17/12 Jade Buddha Temple, Shanghai, China: An active temple, the place had some beautiful carvings and reliefs with a carved jade Buddha on the second floor where no photos were allowed. |
| 6/17/12 Jing'an Temple, Shanghai, China: This is also an active temple with quite a bit of smoke. It is less ornate and more modern than the Jade Buddha Temple but with an interesting history. |
