Protocol: Incidental
Comments: Honeymoon stay at the tropical paradise of the Sheraton Resort near to Male. Not many birds about but a few seen on the atoll & during boat trips out snorkelling & dolphin-watching. The atoll also had resident fruit-bats.
Weather: very hot, mostly sunny, some heavy rain showers.
6 species
White-breasted Waterhen X - its weird call was heard first before seeing them wandering around the resort.
Brown Noddy X - seen during our boat-based excursions.
Fairy Tern X - seen most days flying at sea off the resort lagoon.
Black-naped Tern X - flying off the resort lagoon.
Asian Koel X - for a good few days I only heard its weird, persistent call before finally seeing one in flight. At first it seemed impossible to find one but soon I found a male singing from a tree near to our chalet, then I saw a spotted female near to the fruit-bat tree.
House Crow X
