@ Tsing Yi Park

Bird No.1 :
Is it Eastern Crowned Warbler? My identification is according to its very clean lower part and the sharp green upper part, as well as the long, thick and orange bill.





Bird No.2 :
I initially thing that it is an Artic Warbler(unclear wing bar), but its leg is quite pink to me. Is it the individual variation of Artic warbler? Or It is really a Pale legged warbler?




Bird No.3 :
Due to its orange leg, long and thick bill with black tip, and relatively unclean of the breast part I think I would be an Artic warbler






Thank you very much!

I would agree with you, Eastern-crowned, Pale-legged (or Sakhalin) and Arctic in that order.

Thanks Fai gou and Paul vary much!
I could not imagine that the pale-legged warbler would appear in urban park before...
May be I just had no chance to approch one before=]
Thank you very much
