This morning the following birds were seen in Ng Tung Chai between 0730 and 1030:
 
Japanese Robin (female - very brief views)  
Lesser Shortwing (4 - all heard)
Daurian Redstart (male in the village and female nr Man Duk Yuen Gateway)
 
Mountain Bush Warbler -1
Asian Stubtail - 3
Russet Bush Warbler (singing, not seen)
Mountain Tailorbird (2 out of 5 or 6 seen)
 
Black-naped Monarch (a perfect male! - fantastic)
Grey-headed Flycatcher (heard only)
 
Golden spectacled Warbler sp. ( one wingbar, very uniform yellow, poorly defined super with no hint of grey, paler lores - 3 second views only)
 
This is the second-earliest Japanese Robin record - the earliest was one trapped at KARC on 20th Nov, but the Black-naped Monarch was bird of the day.

Dear Mike,
Is the fantail considered as wild in hong kong now, as it is regularly wintering?
