Asian Paradise Flycatcher 壽帶鳥

I think this is Asian Paradise Flycatcher. The tail and wings are strongly chestnut - I would expect these to be darker on Japanese.

The mantle is not really maroon, but does show some purplish tones. This is a feature of the incei subspecies of APF, which is the subspecies breeding in Eastern China (and therefore the subspecies which occurs in HK).
