I think that makes it 3 Japanese Robin's visiting Hong Kong this year. All male.

Good find

I also had one (also a male) on the northern slopes of Sunset Peak, Lantau on the Sunday before CNY.
Cheers

So far this winter I have records of one at Tai Po Kau, one at KFBG and one at Sunset Peak.
Are there any more?

Last year I only have one record at Tai Po Kau in December - presumably the same bird as the January 2015 record above, and one in January 2014 also at Tai Po Kau, both males.
But not all 2014 records have yet been received (PLEASE NOTE).

Most records in HK are males - either we are a male Japanese Robin dominated society, or the females go unnoticed.
