After turning left and then turning right (going away from MaiPo office), there was a glassland with a few trees. They were seen to fly from glassland up to tree. But they disappeared from sight then.   The black cap and grey body were very obvious. Their size was larger than Bubul (almost double) but was smaller than a mature Magpie. Actually, it is about 80% of a mature Magpie.   Will they be Azure-winged Magpie? I did not see this kind before. I can only find its drawing from book.

I have seen up to 11 birds in the Mai Po and Lok Ma Chau areas for the last two months or so.     This species is on Categaory E of the HK list (escapes) - but they are nice birds!
