Northern House Martin 22 DEC 2015

Thanks to John Allcock again who found these Northern House Martin Delichon urbicum lagopodum, which is my 433th in HK.

To tell these are Northern by:
1. Large, clean white rump and upper-tailed covert
2. Large, clean white vent and lower-tailed covert
3. White chin
4. Brown underwing

Narcissus on PT 13 DEC 2015

The final answer for me is just a nominated Narcissus Flycatcher Ficedula narcissina narcissina.







a female Fujian Niltava Niltava davidi with no problem.


Ending the day with a large dove, the Oriental Turtle Dove Streptopelia orientalis. (why not a green pigeon...)

Booted and Radde's 4 DEC 2015

The Booted Warbler Iduna caligata is still around. I did manage to get some better shots. At the same spot, a newly arrived Radde's Warbler Phylloscopus schwarzi is very friendly for photos.










Note the whitish out-tail.


Here's the radde's.







And two prinia, Yellow-bellied Prinia Prinia flaviventris and Plain Prinia Prinia inornata.
