After a quick bites from 7-11 convenient shop, we set off to our 1st part of the birding trip - Dahsyueshan National Forest. As we approach KM22 of Dahsyueshan Boulevard, we were greeted by cherry blossom blooming.
This is certainly a good place to stop for birding. We spend about an hour before proceed to check in at Visitor Center.
It was another hour of long and winding road to the Visitor Center.
There are so may "Red Maple" tree here, are they? I later found out that they are not Red Maple tree but Snake Bark Maple (
Acer rubescens) and are endemic to Taiwan!
This will be our play area for the next 2 -3 days.
We will spend the next 2 nights in these wooden hut.
The temperature expected to drop below 10 Celsius at night at this elevation. This should be fun as we have plan to look for nocturnal animals at night.
