Do any one know what bird is it? The legs are black.
 
Someone picked up from the street in Kowloon Tong.

It's a juvenile White Wagtail Motacilla alba, presumably of the locally breeding form leucopsis.
 
It probably breeds in the Kowloon Tong area, which has quite  a bit of suitable habitat, with open spaces and park/garden type areas.  
 
Hope it can make it back into the wild.

As far as I know, you need a license to take care of sick or injured bird in HK.  The law in HK are very restrictive in this aspect.  I think you (Blackdogto) may get yourself  into trouble if you take care of the bird yourself.  I suggest getting the bird to the proper organization.
