Internationally important sites for Black-faced Spoonbills (Platalea minor) in relation to annual life cycle and protected areas. a Summering = May–September, including four breeding sites (Yuanbao Island is very close to Xingren Island so here are combined as one site, labelled Xingren Island). b Wintering = December–February, including 19 internationally important sites, 5 important key sites (> 5% of the 2016–2020 wintering counts, 200) and 14 regular key sites (1–5%, 40–200). c Autumn Migration = October–November, including 9 key sites (used by more than ten birds, the 0.25% of the average of the 2016–2020 wintering counts, 10 birds, or used by tagged individuals for more than 7 consecutive days). d Spring Migration = March–April or May, including 4 key sites (the definition is the same as the Autumn Migration period). Revised summering, wintering, and stopover ranges are shaded in green, blue and light purple, respectively
