A chat with red at the base of the tail and a strong white supercilium.  Up to five have been at Long Valley this winter . . .  

A good record for Lamma, too!

Thanks Neil for showing me this bird at the bottom of Yung Shue Long Valley.  I think there is no doubt about the identity now.  In Kmike's enigmatic style, the BLUE on the THROAT gives a very strong hint.  Seeing this species is quite a big deal for us simple Lamma folk.  The light was fading fast by the time I got there, but I managed to get a couple of quick shots as it scurried here and there among the cabbages.
