Po Toi 14 Apr 2019 - birding before rain

We went Po Toi to see any new migrants - at last the old one had gone while no new arrived.... No Oriental Plover, only some raptors remaining like Chinese and Japanese Sparrowhawk, Grey-faced Buzzard. We spent our time with at least two Swinhoe's and one Ashy Minivet before the rain came.

My 2019 HK Big Year is 214.
