Excellent photo! Males are rarely seen in HK, and are recorded less than annually. To differentiate this from a female, have a look at the Hong Kong Bird Report 1995, and on page 210 you'll find a paper by Paul Leader on the identification of Citrine and Yellow Wagtails in HK, with many photos. Please make sure you submit this record with any others of interest at the end of the year! Thanks, Geoff Carey
