An adult Amur Falcon (male) was seen at Tsim Bei Tsiu yesterday morning (8:00am). Its reddish vent & feet made it distinguished from other accipiters.

Very elegant bird! Did he subsequently start on his migration or did he stay around?

An excellent shot! Forrest! 
Is it full frame?! As per KK's previous post, post-processing work is suggested for a more presentable photo.

觀鳥是要用心眼，並非簡單地用肉眼去看，用心眼去感受一下，看透牠們奧秘的生命。

For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

Hi Daniel,
Of course it is not a full frame photo. Over 60% of it was cropped. The original posted photo was processed based on a jpg file which was resized for two times. I have replaced it with a photo which is working from the RAW file. Please kindly suggest any further post-processing work is required.
Below is the full frame photo:-

According to "A Field Guide to the Birds of China - John MacKinnon", its Chinese name should be 阿穆爾隼 (Falco amurensis). 紅腳隼 should be Red-footed Falcon (Falco vespertinus).

As I know, there were only several sight records each year and each time they only appeared in HK for one or two days. (Please correct me if I am wrong )
今次是我第二次見到牠，第一次是在多年前，而且只是非常遙遠地看見一隻有紅色 腳及臀的隼飛過！ 初時還誤認牠是赤腹鷹。

An Amur Falcon at Mai Po was reported in the hotline at the same day. I believe that it has continued his migration. 
Regards,
Forrest

多謝 Forrest兄不嗇賜教, 我沒有"A Field Guide to the Birds of China - John MacKinnon",但係在香港及華南鳥類圖鑑72頁-
紅腳隼=Amur Falcon=Manchurian Red-Footed Falcaon=Falco amurensis=鄭作新(1976) 列為 Falco vespertinus amurensis. 而且圖片和你的相片非常相似,請問是否圖鑑有錯不同的亞種如何鑑別還 是另有原因 先謝了!
