Dave,

The place is written in Chinese. It is from Cape D'Aguilar.

Actually it's a small point but while we are indeed told the location is "Kok Tsui" 鶴咀 we are not told the precise date.

In view of the way the weather conditions last week (and presumably not the "earthquake"!) affected birds it'd be nice to know when exactly it was seen.
Thanks,

Mike Turnbull
