Not been too much of interest in the garden for a while...
However managed to get a shot of this maleNarcissus Flycatcher.... seems almost impossible to get him before he goes to water.
Is also about a week later than last year... seems all the migrants may weather affected.... prevailing winds etc etc.

Interesting. This isn't first time you have had an arrival the same day I have had on Hong Kong Island. It seems there is some correlation between migrants pattern on Hong Kong Island and Lamma. I start suspecting Lamma and Hong Kong are more closely related in terms of migration rates than with Po Toi.
Great shot by the way. Author: mguy Time: 15/04/2011 22:51
Thanks both... yes was good to see him again.... assuming is the same one as last year.
Brendan.... can easily see that Lamma & HK Island would be closely related in migration terms than with Po Toi.
Also think that there are a lot more birds to be seen on Lamma than are being seen by me.... I very rarely get out & about
BTW had a Brown Thrush in the garden last week, but no photo and have the following are daily visitors:
Hwamei
Manchurian Bush warbler
Rufous-tailed Robin (2, maybe 3)
Blackbirds Author: gary Time: 16/04/2011 00:13
