Is it a Chestnut-bellied Rock Thrush (栗腹磯鶇) or Blue Rock Thrush (藍磯鶇)? Thanks a lot! Photo By William Wong 27Nov2005 KFBG 嘉道理農場

Certainly Chestnut-bellied, William. The black "face", as well as the overall darkness of the bird indicates this, + I believe the shape of the bill, or certainly the lower mandible. In C-b. R. Thrush it's like this ie concave, giving a slighly downturned bill, while in Blue R. Thrush it's convex, contributing to the impression of a straighter bill. Mike Turnbull
