Thanks to Xoni, a male Rufous-gorgeted Flycatcher was seen in Pokfulam Reservoir Road today. It was later photographed and I hope the photographers could post them soon.

Although it was close, it was quite sensitive to people and only seen briefly.
Photos taken by Jinpan.

By the way, a Little Grebe was seen foraging in Pokfulam Reservoir on 25th Feb 2010. It seems uncommon outside the Deep Bay area.

Thanks all involved for finding and posting details. It meant I could legitimately get out of going to Park 'n' Shop (or other similar large chain grocery store) on a Saturday afternoon!

Brilliant!
