Birds ID please
All taken at KFBG in Mar 3
Is 524a a Japanese White-eye, though it has blue tail?
Are the warblers in 518a/521a, 612a/616a yellow-browed warblers?
Is 597a/598a a Huet's fulvetta?
Thanks!!

598 is a striated yuhina, the last two warblers are probably radde's or dusky, and the others are probably yellow-browed. The white-eye is probably a japanese, because the only other white-eye is chestnut flanked, which is much more rare.

The first is a Japanese White-eye. I think the tail looks an unusual colour because of the angle of the light on this photograph, not because it was actually unusual.
I agree with Striated Yuhina, now officially named as Chestnut-collared Yuhina on the Hong Kong list.
I think the first warbler is Yellow-browed, although the angle is a bit difficult for me.
The second warbler has wing-bars, so can't be Dusky/Radde's. Based mostly on wing pattern, structure and leg colour I think it is a Two-barred Warbler.

Thanks all!
612a/616a was among bird wave but I could not hear its call well
