I too have found Greater Necklaced L'thrush to be very widespread in the Yung Shue O area of Sai Kung, and to a lesser extent in Ma On Shan.

As for Silky (Red-billed) Starlings, there is also a flock of about 30 birds at Yung Shue O village feeding in a fruiting tree with Japanese Thrushes (opposite the toilets near the bridge just before the village itself).
