I think that this is a juvenile White Wagtail of the race leucopsis - the only wagtail that breeds in Hong Kong. dave diskin

They (3 of them) playing in the ponds of Mai Po access road. also they look a bit thin and small to be a magpie robin for me.

The tail looks like Magpie Robin, doesn't it, but everything else, especially wing markings makes this a wagtail. Got to be juv leucopsis, I think. Mike Turnbull
