Mike -

Brown-headed Thrush - Feeds in the drainage channel near the second footbridge (if you come along Airfield Road from Kam Tin). Stand on the bridge and look back in the direction of the first bridge. The bird can be a bit flighty, but I eventually got excellent views on Sunday.

Dusky Thrush - The same place as last winter (although I didn't see it then either!!) Cross over the drainage channel on the bridge by the pig farm that feeds the Painted-snipe pond. Take the path immediately on the right through the mesh-covered fields. The bird was seen somewhere in this area.
