That should be a moth (天蛾科?), often wrongly identify as a bird (some even say hummingbird, which never occurs in HK) Apart from this moth, sometimes small birds like Sunbirds might at first glance looks similar. Anyway, it's a good photo and you can try to ask insects experts or try the HKInsect.net.
