Tai Po Kau 大埔滘 2008 Winter 冬

First pic of Bay Woodpecker in HK - congratulations Kwan!

. . . and referringto Beetle's post  - I would swap one bay Woodpecker for the whole flock of 30 Striated Yuhinas in Ng Tung Chai!

This record is intreesting because White-browed Laughingthrushes are usually birds of open country (such as around She Shan, above Wun Yiu and Chau Tau).

Bay Woodpecker was seen at the Outdoor Study Centre, Tai Po around 9:30 this morning, but not by me.

I also heard that the Brown Wood Owl was heard early one morning last week in Tai Po Kau.

HI Bryan

The bird you mention may be a male Buff-bellied Flowerpecker.
