Just happened to review some photos taken last year and found one which looks interesting.
There are black spots on both side of neck. The legs looks pinkish rather than yellow/orange. The breast has bold steaks.
There was one photo looks very similar to it taken in 2008 at Mai Po (link). Would it be Pechora Pipit?

Yup it's Pechora, with the clean black streaks confined to the breast, contrasting to the snow-white belly. There is also a gingery tone to the head.

I also go for Pechora.
