We took a week trip to southern Taiwan at the end of July. The goal was to see Lantau Island, Kenting National Park, and Kaohsiung. Unfortunately, Lantau Island was cancelled because of the weather, and Kenting was absolutely soaking with torrential typhoon rains so mountainous regions and hiking in general was off the table. Despite these conditions, some nice trips were taken in city parks and coastal areas. Here's a selection of different birds and other wildlife we saw during our stay.
