This afternoon there were 11 White-vented Needletails hunting in the Ng Tung Chai Valley for a couple of hours.

Also:

1 Hodgson's Hawk Cuckoo (heard)
1 Slaty-backed Forktail (heard)
3 Mountain Tailorbird (heard + 2 seen)
1 Hainan Blue Flycatcher

Cheers
Mike

Plus 4 striated yuhina!

I wonder if they have become residents in HK

We are so sorry we nearly missed out one interesting bird. In the same morning on 9/4/04 at around 11am, there was one Ferruginous flycatcher outside the temple. We could not identify immediately even with good long views. We made the identification after carefully reviewed our video today.
