Not much left of the Buffalo Fields, but I had a walk around late morning, though birds were limited to:

Little Ringed Plover x4
Yellow Wagtail x2
Richard's Pipit x3
White-shouldered Starlings x6

Common Snipe, Green Sandpiper and Yellow Wagtails (4) were seen in small plot of agriculture to the north of Buffalo Fields.

At the large ponds north of the new drainage channel near Sha Po, the pond closest to Castle Peak Road had c. 40 Water Buffalo feeding, lounging and wallowing in it, with reasonable numbers of Cattle Egrets (19) feeding around them.  Intermediate Egrets (3) and Little Egrets (15) also feeding around pond edges.  A single Pheasant-tailed Jacana was also in this pond, presumeably the one that has been there for a while now.
