Wow! Who would have predicted a week ago that there would be pictures posted of a Speckled Piculet at Long Valley, an Oriental Stork at Mai Po and a Brown-breasted Flycatcher at TPK?
Best July week ever, surely!

I understand this bird was seen again today. Could anyone tell me where in TPK this bird might be looked for?

Cheers

Thanks, Ken, for finding this!

News travels fast I see. I saw this bird around 1430. Where the trail splits just before the third picnic area, take left trail (uphill). I saw it about 30 meters before the first little bridge on this trail. A bit lucky because I wasn't particularly looking for it anymore than I was for the Bay Woodpecker or Piculet. Now just need those other two.

Brendan

It was on Birdline!! You must have phoned it in.

Many thanks for your directions - I know exactly where you mean - on what I call the Blue Walk Loop.

I heard Bay Woodpecker (I think) on the access road before the old orchard on July 13th at about 9.00 a.m.

I have yet to see Speckled Piculet in HK.

These latest pictures (by kena2089) show a juvenile Hainan Blue Flycatcher - note that there are differences between this and the first photos in structure (particularly bill length), face pattern (white lores on the Brown-breasted) and upperparts spotting. The adult on the last photos is also a Hainan Blue.
