HI LOUIS,
Such photos were took at mudflat bird watching house two years ago!
I haven't reported it due to my lack of knowlage

This group of seven was regularly reported at the boardwalk from 26 January to 13 March 2012.
As the 2012 HK Bird Report is about to be printed, I will try to change the latest date reported there to 17 March.

I haven't put the 2013 records together yet, but there may only be a single Common Shelduck reported in winter 2012-2013 and I can't recall any so far this winter 2013-2014?

A sad decline for this species from the 1990's when more than 1000 were regularly reported.

Geoff, as far as I know from the data, we have no Common Shelduck in this winter. It is probably the first winter to have more Ruddy Shelducks than the Common!
