I saw a post of Pacific Swallow in Hong Kong on 15 March 2010.  If confirmed, this would be a new species for HK.  Please check the following link.

Looks good to me!

It guess this is a Shenzhen photographer coming to Mai Po to see the  Philippine Duck

Does anyone know who this person is - it would be great to have more details

Cheers

The photographer is from Hong Kong.

But where is the photo taken?  Does not look like a HK photo to me, plus chances of two together seems slim.

There seem to be no pictures at the link. Have these been removed for some reason?

I checked with the photographer. The picture was probably taken in Malaysia. It was a mistake when posting. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks, fkm, for clarifying the situation.

Still, if strange ducks can turn up from the Phillipines, surely strange Swallows could follow... !
