Hi  
Would it be possible to let me know where is Sham Wat and where you saw the Rock Thrush
Thanks in advance

Sham Wat is the bay between Sha Lo Wan and Tai O. There is a road connecting to Ngong Ping.
Of course, I don't know where the Rock Thrush was - I would guess in woodland/shrubland along the path towards either Sha Lo Wan or Tai O.

Thanks John

It would be good know where to look as its a big area

Hundreds meter uphill from Sham Wat towards Sha Lo Wan, there is a short bridge beyond the village (Upper Sham Wat Village?)and before go ahead another uphill concrete path, the white throated Thrush found in the woodland beside the bridge.
When walking along the bridge on that day, heard some thrush feeding around and seen one of them flying into the woodland, looked inside with my scope and found a very orange/red breast bird and moved aside quickly. Try capture again but the bird moved further away.
Also just a quick look at a male White throated rock Thrush found  standing on the rail in the same village in February 2011 on a rainy afternoon.
