I did not expect to see so many Chestnut Bulbuls in Kam Tin.   Logged Thank you for sharing the joy of bird-watching.

This is unusual - I visit Kam Tin regularly and have only seen chestnut bulbul here once before (a group of 6 last autumn). This is presumably a migrant flock on their way towards their breeding grounds.
