With the exception of a [B]philippensis Blue Rock Thrush[/B] in Ng Tung village, and two Yellow-cheeked Tits and a Ferruginous Flycatcher, which gave superb prolonged views in the clearing in front of the temple (I even got some nice video of it flicking about and preening), Ng Tung Chai was rather quiet this morning.
The only other birds of interest were two Velvet-fronted Nuthatches collecting nesting material, five different Streak-breasted Scimitar-Babblers , and a Black-winged Cuckooshrike on the village access road.
Additional interest came in the form of a wandering Hong Kong Newt - they occasionally abandon their streams and go walkabout in the most un-amphibian manner, and a wholly albino plant.
Cheers
