fantastic Bay Woodpecker...
A yellow-rumped flycatcher was also seen near picnic area 3.
Also saw a cuckoo this morning and heard a plaintive cuckoo later. May be the same bird.
Saw also what I can only assume being an orange-headed thrush, crossing the road, while I was in the bus going from Fo Tan to TPK, early morning.

Dear Fatchun

See a hobby hunting in the air - the sight must have been fantastic!

I was at the top of Lai Ning Road (above Old Tai Po Road) this afternoon and was lucky to see a [b]Grey Treepie[/b] flying along the hillside above the canopy.

[b][size=4][color=Black]18 Sep 2012 (Tue)[/color][/size][/b]

A lot of birds were on the opposite side of the carpark on Tai Po Road including [b][size=4][color=DarkOrchid]an Asian Brown Flycatcher[/color][/size][/b] around 7:10 am

The reserve proper was quite quiet. I [b][size=4][color=Purple]missed a Yellow-rumped Flycatcher [/color][/size][/b]-possibly a juv/female - which I just managed to see a flash of its small bright yellow rump before it flew away following
some babblers and nuthatches.

Near the iron-rail on Red/Blue Walk circuit there was [b][size=4][color=DarkOrchid]a Dark-sided Flycatcher [/color][/size][/b]feeding on top of the stream.

Elsewhere there were [b][size=4][color=DarkOrchid]warblers, Eastern-crowned and Arctic[/color][/size][/b], just as usual.

Cheers

A quick walk this evening between 4.30 and 5.30pm produced only an [b]Asian Brown Flycatcher[/b] and two [b]Mountain Bulbuls[/b].  [b]Great Barbet[/b] was calling but there was little else to see.

Suggest White-spec for the Seicercus. Fairly prominent wing bar, and the orbital ring appears to be absent above the eye (though I admit the angle is not great).

Beetle 1/01/2013 23:17

On 1 Jan there were also a pair of Fujian Niltava and a Verditer Flycatcher.

[IMG]http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u252/glurice/DSC_7618_zpsa0ce6fcf.jpg[/IMG]

The Female appears a little bit strange with no white patch between the throat/breast; but the size was distinctively large.

brendank 1/01/2013 23:33

I think the orangish wash to the throat and the lack of a blue half collar would suggest the female is a Vivid Niltava.

Some photographers today also reported a possible male Vivid Niltava. Hopefully we will see some more photos of that.

Do you have any more photos of the male?

Beetle 1/01/2013 23:41

It appears that the male has bright shiny forehead, barely seen in the poor quality photo.

Not sure if this is useful
[IMG]http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u252/glurice/DSC_7665_zps25b61790.jpg[/IMG]


The blue collar is present in the female.

brendank 1/01/2013 23:48

The orangish wash to the face and throat of the female would make it Vivid for me. See

Beetle 2/01/2013 00:05

Given the rather white vent of the male I would tend to believe it is a Fujian Niltava.
Any idea about the blue collar of the female(though not very apparent but could still be seen in the photo)?

Beetle 3/01/2013 18:23

On 3/1/2013 (pm) there was a Chestnut-crowned Warbler, mixed in a bird wave.

Do you have photos of either of the Niltavas especially the female?

kmatthew 8/01/2013 23:36

Unfortunately I couldn't get a shot of either birds, the male I saw clearly the bright contrasting head patch. The female I ID as a Fujian due to the more washed out under belly, but seeing the recent photographs, I guess I can't rule out the possibility that I saw the same bird, as I surely didnt have as great a view as that!

thinfor 9/01/2013 21:43

A very nice birding day in TPK on 8Jan.  Though I could not see the Japanese robin, the bird wave occurred when I started leaving blue and red trail looked as if the birds were following me to leave TPK.  So birdy that I should say this was the best birding ever for my birding records in TPK (well, I don't go to TPK so frequently so it might be exaggerating).

This is how I would like to see bird lists on the website - English name at the start of each line, followed by number and/or comment.
I can then automatically pick up the details for the Annual Records.

The only issue here is the use of Goodson's/Hartert's as names. I would prefer you used

Goodson's Leaf Warbler - goodsoni - for the yellow ones and
Goodson's Leaf Warbler - fokiensis - for the white ones.

Thanks

Better still would be for all birders to submit their records at the end of the year in the Excel file provided on the website. This means that all records will be kept and be available for analysis now or in the future, rather than the more interesting species that GeoffW picks out.

We don't have the resources to collect all records posted here, and so many will disappear.

Kwan, could you leave off the '-' at the start of the species name please?
So

pale thrush 2X is OK (starting at the beginning of the line, no blanks before the word pale)

I can then process your records directly from these lists without making any changes

The Chestnut-crowned Warbler is the bird wave generally seen around the big rock between the Picnic Area 1 & 2.

I missed all those that were found by others for taking a different route though recording 39 species.

[size=4][color=Purple][b]Twenty-five Eurasian siskins [/b][/color][/size]had taken their morning foraging ground above the Study Centre and while I was waiting at the bus-stop I saw [b][size=4][color=Purple]an Osprey flying in from Tolo Harbour, bill holding nest-building materials[/color][/size][/b].

It's urged birders keep on observing if Ospreys do succeed in breeding youngs at Tai Po Kau woodlands and  at least report here for I think it'd be record breaking news.

Large mixed flock of babblers, bulbuls and leaf warblers along the stream.  At least twenty warblers moving around, the bulk of which seemed to be Pallas's.

No Slaty Bunting much to my disappointment.
