Blyth's-L-Warbler/SulphurBreasted Warbler?

Po Toi : 1st April, 2006 Not really sure whether it is a Blyth's Leaf Warbler (goodsoni) or the Sulphur-breasted Warbler. Thought to be goodsoni (size wise) but it did not show its usual behaviour, such as searching tree trunks and branches for insects. Whats more is that it was unusually bright yellow for a Blyth. So could it be a Sulphur-breasted Warbler? The crown-stripe were very dark and It does not show any eyerings or white under-tail. Would it suggested a Sulphur-breasted ? Can some one help out here, thank in advance, PWMK

| It was too active and too high up. It was first spotted by Kwok Jai and George Ho initially call it out to be a Sulphur-breasted Warbler. Congratulations!! PWMK
