Thanks for posting these photos, it's useful to be able to keep track of these colour-ringed birds.
The combination on this bird is red-yellow-black (left leg) and white-metal (right leg).
This individual was ringed at Kam Tin on 29th April 2006 and has also been resighted near Mai Po on 7th August 2006.

I had another resighting of this bird yesterday, at Pat Heung. It was with another colour-ringed individual but unfortunately I could not see the combination on that bird.
Other colour-ringed birds must also be in Hong Kong, please remember to keep a look out for them!
