Dear Fatchun

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

Cheers

A lot of birds were on the opposite side of the carpark on Tai Po Road including an Asian Brown Flycatcher around 7:10 am

The reserve proper was quite quiet. I missed a Yellow-rumped Flycatcher -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 a Dark-sided Flycatcher feeding on top of the stream.

Elsewhere there were warblers, Eastern-crowned and Arctic, just as usual.

Cheers

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

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

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.
