I was surprised to see it as I didn't expect to see one until around September, and certainly not there.  Is this a regular in this area?

I'm amazed though that I hadn't seen any for the last two months and in two days last week I saw one at Tai Po and 2 at Mai Po . Where do they go to breed? Neil.

They must be breeding in the area.  Neil.
