All taken in TPK in Sep 26

I guess they are all flycatchers but I cannot specify what type they belong to.

Thanks!!

First two photos are Huet's fulvetta and the last photo is an Amur Paradise flycatcher.

I wonder if perhaps the flycatcher is Japanese Paradise-Flycatcher rather than Amur. The tail looks brown to me, whereas Amur's tail is rufous.

There appears to be a small passage of Japanese Paradise-Flycatcher through HK at the moment; I saw two in the wood next to the car park at Mai Po on Sunday.
