I know this pic is terrible, but can anyone venture an ID on it?

Looks like a Pheasant-tailed Jacana.

Agree with Pheasant-tailed Jacana.
Was this recent? They're unusual in HK in winter.

Dear Mr. Miller

Please be reminded that all users are required to post their bird photos together with corresponding DATE and LOCATION shown in the message.

For details of this requirement, kindly refer to section B in this link : http://www.hkbws.org.hk/BBS/viewthread.php?tid=17833

Your input will definitely contribute to the proper maintenance of bird database in HK.

Thank you !!!!

This picture was taken on 8-Dec, 2013 in Long Valley. Thanks for your assistance in identifying it.

My sincerest apologies to the Membership and Officers for not following protocol!!!

Just to confirm what Bonnie has said about the importance of including date and location, this may be the latest record of Pheasant-tailed Jacana in Hong Kong in 2013.
If so, your record will appear in the 2013 HK Bird Report.
