鳳山丘陵 Fongshan Hills
基本介紹 Introductio
鳳山丘陵位於高雄市小港區、大寮區及林園區交界處，標高141公尺，東至線道台25線，南至鳳鼻頭，西鄰省道17線臨海路及南星計畫區，北接鳳山水庫與大坪頂，鳳山水庫及南星計畫區都是高雄市賞鳥的熱點。由於週邊均是平原，鳳山丘陵可以往西南側遠眺小琉球及東港，也可以往東觀察高屏溪溪床及大寮市區一帶，由於地理位置鄰海，且為許多祖先長眠之處，少有人為干擾且少遮蔽，十分適合觀察春季北遷的鷹群。歷年來記錄到的猛禽種類多達21種以上，且發現大坪頂至鳳山水庫週邊山坡，鳳山水庫、清水巖東側山坡及潭頭山、鳳山山頭南向坡到駱駝山一帶低海拔山丘是灰面鵟鷹及赤腹鷹過境的重要夜棲地，甚至沿海三、四路及鳳鼻頭山頭附近、南星計畫區的樹林區也會被利用夜棲。
Fongshan Hills are located on the border among Siaogang, Daliao and Linyuan districts with an elevation of 141m. Birding hot spots range eastward to County Highway No. 25, southward to Fongbitou, westward to Provincial Highway No. 17 and South Star area, and northward to Fongshan Reservoir and Dapingding, birding hot spots in Kaohsiung. You can overlook Lamay Island and Donggang on southwest and Gaoping River and Daliao downtown on the east from Fongshan Hills. Few Human disturbances and covers make Fongshan Hills a good watch site for spring migration. 21 different raptors have been recorded over the years. Moreover, ridges from Dapingding to Fongshan Reservoir, Fongshan Reservoir, east ridges near Qingshui Temple and Tantoushan, and low elevation hills from south of Fongshan to Luotuoshan are found as rooting sites for Grey-faced Buzzard and Chinese Sparrow Hawk during their migration. Forests near Yanhai Road No. 3 and No. 4 and Fongbitou are used as rooting sites by migrating raptors.
高雄鳳山丘陵南端猛禽觀察點，介於高雄市林園區駱駝山及小港區大坪頂之間的潭頭山及鳳山頂上，共有8個；自1998年起高雄鳥會洪福龍在鳳山水庫內記錄鸕鶿時便曾記錄到灰面鵟鷹群，從1999至2003年間開始持續的於春季3月15日起，於鳳山水庫內進行灰面鵟鷹及赤腹鷹調查。2003年3月份才加入了鄭政卿鳥友一起調查，此後鳳山丘陵春季猛禽調查慢慢地成為高雄鳥會每年的重點工作，且均會將調查過程重要的發現與大眾分享(網址)，詳見 http://www.kwbs.org.tw/ 高雄鳥會首頁。
There are 8 raptor watchsites of south Fongshan Hills located on tops of Tantoushan and Fongshan which are midway between Luotuoshan in Linyuan District and Dapingding in Siaogang District. Since 1998, Hong, Fu-Long, a member of Kaohsiung Wild Bird Society has been monitoring cormorant at Fongshan Reservoir and also had recorded Grey-faced Buzzard migration. During 1999 to 2003, He conducted Grey-face Buzzard and Chinese Sparrow Hawk monitoring there every March, 15. Zheng,Zheng-Qing joined him in March, 2003. Since then, raptor spring migration count at Fongshan Hill gradually became an important program of Kaohsiung Wild Bird Society. The discoveries from the program are available online (http://www.kwbs.org.tw/)
