Thanks, excellent photos of a very attractive bird. So it was an April 2011 bird and it does appear in the 2011 HK Bird Report.

Some of our newer members may not know of one of the most remarkable records of all time in Hong Kong which concerned Japanese Yellow Bunting.

In November 2007, four Japanese Yellow Buntings arrived on Po Toi - a remarkable record in itself since it was the first ever autumn record of this species in Hong Kong. But on 27 November, Owen Chiang photographed one of these birds which had a ring and, even more remarkable, the ring could be read. Through the ring, it was found that this bird was ringed as a first year male at Niigata Prefecture, north Honshu in Japan, just 34 days before it's arrival on Po Toi. It's journey can be seen on this map

and the story appears on the website here

So, all you photographers, can you match Owen's achievement?
