Koel, Aaron and I thought that this a Manchurian because:

1. Eyebrow thinly defined and strongest anterior to the eye
2. Pale tint to irides.
3. Proportionally long bill and tail
4. Short primary projection (Koel has a photo showing this more clearly I believe)

Not completely sure of the ID and welcome comments.

Admittedly the color tone is different is colder in my photos. But I would say structure especially the bill is consistent in both photo sets and I thought brow pattern was relatively clear in my third picture.
