Saw quite a few warbler in Ng Tung Chai (19Dec), but got no idea how to identify them. Please help.

Small phylloscopus warblers are difficult.... but your second shot (and possibly all three) are Pallas's Warblers.

They have a light crown stripe, hover a lot, and the call is "Too-ouy" - the sound is a bit like the cork being twisted in a wine bottle.

Happy New Year.
