Corvus torquatus
A flock of Collared Crows feeding together. They are on a slightly sandy area at the rocky river bank. There are a total of 6 birds in the group. They have black body with white necks and chests. I'm not sure what bird type are they at first but thanks to Liam, I now know that this species is Corvus torquatus (Collared crow).
漓江 LiJiang River area, YangShuo阳朔, GuangXi广西, China.
While touring the Li Jiang River at Yang Shuo in China by boat, I spotted several bird species. This is the third bird species I took photograph of at Li Jiang River. They were about 80 meters away from the boat I was on. I took a picture of them even though I knew that my camera was not designed for distance bird photography. I am usually not interested in birds but I took photograph of them because I never seen this species of birds before. >>>Map accuracy : 3km radius.
Strange but true.
Mother Nature can create unusual stuffs.
This species is only endemic to China.
We have similar birds here. From what i see this looks a lot like some kind of Magpie or a Crow (only the Crow doesn't have white chest).
