You should have gone for the Mountain Peacock-Pheaasant in the Japanese Gardens nearby…
Also, you saw Cinereous Bulbul (split from Ashy) rather than Ashy Bulbul.

Hi Ronaldo!
Thank you for the clarification on the Ashy-Cinereous bulbul ID!

I did try to look out for the Mountain Peacock-Pheasant. But not much luck.
