Hwamei (Lamma Island) (Garrulax canorus)

Harry on Lamma got some great shots of some immature a couple of days ago..... pointed me in the right direction but I couldn't see them.
As I was setting up, managed to get a snap shot of this adult .
Not quite as sharp as I would like, but the ss was too slow for such a heavy setup.
Has been 2 years since my last Hwamei shot, but nothing as clean as this. Are a very difficult bird to get in the open.
