Victoria Park Hong Kong

Right after Typhoon Manghkut, had a few hours of free time before flight, went to Victoria Park to see the aftermath of the typhoon. It is really a mess. Fallen trees, leaves are all over the place. Still managed to get some good photos. of flora and fauna.

At the entrance, there is a map readable by Visual Impaired people. I wonder how much can they make use of it.

The first tree I see has many branches on the ground. This one is Queen Crape Myrtle, 大花紫薇。

You can see the path is all covered with leaves from trees. At some places, you can't even see the path but that does not deter morning exercise people.

Next plant on the ground is 異葉南洋杉, Norfolk Island Pine.

Among the fallen branches I found male and female Red-whiskered Bulbul. Their nest probably destroyed.

I just need to look at the ground for plant species. This one is 枫香.

Next one is Eucalyptus robusta.

Black-collared Starling seems to be lost.

A Oriental Magpie-Robin seems to be quite active.

Black Rock Pigeon seems to be lost too.

A burst pipe and a fallen tree trunk.

Another view of the devastation.

Yet another Black-collared Starling foraging.

Did not take photos of fallen trees. It is almost like walking in a jungle trail.

Since it is just in a park, no maps or albums. The trip is just 3 KM.
