13-16th March 2026
After searching for years, at last the gang have found one of the route for the migrating Grey-faced Buzzard and Chinese Sparrowhawk in Pitas, Kota Marudu in between Bongol and Layak-Layak village!
During the surveys, estimated around 2k++ GFB and CS were seen passing through towards the North to Palawan Island and Japan. The group will gather again in September 2026 at Pitas and Lahad Datu.
