CLEAN: Development threatens Hong Kong bird migration haven
In an isolated corner of the heavily-guarded Hong Kong-mainland China border, a unique mangrove forest provides valuable living space to many rare and endangered birds. But conservationists warn much of the land surrounding the Mai Po wildlife reserve is in danger, as government and construction companies seek out valuable development space. In this city, more famous for its concrete skyline, the presence of a world-class wetland nesting site for migratory birds provides a haven for bird lovers.
