Bright-capped Cisticola.  Good bird in HK.

This looks like a Zitting Cisticola to me.
I would expect Bright-capped to have a greyer back and plainer head (less obvious supercilium, greyer ear coverts).

Thanks both!  I made a quick-search on Bright-capped / Zitting Cisticola & found a previous discussion about them.
