I am new to bird watching activity. I find several birds that cannot be identified. Please help.

#1 The 1st one was found near the bridge where Great Tit was saw.

#2 The 2nd one was found in the tree we saw the 1st Common Kingfisher. However, it was too far away so that the image is very small.

#3 The 3rd one was found on the way we were searching Greater Painted-snipe. Was it a female Common Stonechat?

#2 是棕背伯勞(黑色型)

#3 I think you are right . A female stonechat
我反而想知#1 是甚麼,個咀很特別

#1 looks like a female Oriental Magpie Robin but the light and angle of the bird make it difficult to see the distinctive white areas.

#2 is a Long-tailed Shrike of the Dusky form

#3 is, as you thought, a Common Stonechat
