只有這一張是清楚一點,有3張是比較模糊
我想這大概是逸鳥,腹部看起來也是黑色,喙也長,應不是北灰鶲

Thanks
The size is a bit small, just like a bulbul or even smaller, so I think it is a flycatcher.
I took photos of one Blue Rock Thrush about one hour before this one, that one haven't broken its lower mandbile.
Two different birds?

Also at Ho Man Tin(5-10-2008)

I agree this is a Blue Rock Thrush too, the shape looks wrong for a flycatcher. I have seen many birds with broken beaks like this one before, I always wonder how do they survive??
