Sorry about the poor quality of this image. Seen chasing insects with Chinese Bulbull in the farmland on Lamma today. Neil.

A chat with red at the base of the tail and a strong white supercilium. Up to five have been at Long Valley this winter . . .

A good record for Lamma, too!

Cheers

Thanks Neil for showing me this bird at the bottom of Yung Shue Long Valley. I think there is no doubt about the identity now. In Kmike's enigmatic style, the BLUE on the THROAT gives a very strong hint. Seeing this species is quite a big deal for us simple Lamma folk. The light was fading fast by the time I got there, but I managed to get a couple of quick shots as it scurried here and there among the cabbages.
