從側面看,好像不似灰斑鴴

啲毛有啲金金地feel, 可能係太平洋金斑鴴.

This is a Pacific Golden Plover. Some yellower feathers are visible on the upperparts, ruling out Grey Plover. Also the structure (rather small, slim appearance) and obvious supercilium do not fit Grey Plover. Also, Grey Plover is very rare away from the intertidal areas and is unlikely at Long Valley.

If the two photos were posted together in the 1st round, then may Sze would not have made such a mistake.  So please help us all by posting all that is necessary to make an accurate judgement.

Thanks for the information.
參考 香港及華南鳥類 ,書中的金斑鴴, 胸前飾羽是黑色的. 請問為何這隻不是黑色的呢?

這是因為牠正由非繁殖羽轉為繁殖羽, 因為不是一下子所有羽毛轉換, 所以你會見到牠的面至腹部會慢慢出些黑色羽毛, 一撻撻再變成黑色
