It's taken at Mai Po last Sunday.
Is this a Yellow Wagtail or Grey-headed Wagtail ? Thank you for your advice. Author: fatchun Time: 27/01/2010 00:40
Manchurian yellow wagtail? 東北黃鶺鴒?
The sub-species of yellow wagtail Author: thinfor Time: 28/01/2010 00:32
Yes, I think it's Manchurian yellow wagtail (東北黃鶺鴒) Macronyx subspecies. See whether any experienced birders would confirm this. Author: John Holmes Time: 28/01/2010 08:00
Thanks John for your confirmation and Grace for the photo.
This, again, shows that every single common bird has to be WATCHED. That makes us understand more about the common species as well as may bring us some surprise.
