Checked
out a couple of sites near Gonghe where a pair of Oriental Greenfinches were new for the trip, and we also saw Godlewski’s Bunting and Przevalski’s Partridge before returning
to the hotel for our first ‘sit-down’ breakfast of the tour. Shouldn’t have
bothered really as it was rubbish and craving pizza right now! Afterwards we
checked out some other areas but all we found new was a pair of Asian Azure-winged Magpies - but a pair
of Daurian Partridge were much
appreciated by Frank before heading north after a lunch stop back in town.

Later in the day, on
a grassy hillside we found Pere David’s Snowfinch to be common, along with White-rumped Snowfinch and Ground-tit as well. Another 100km drive
back to Xining followed and some time to rest before our busy day tomorrow.
