Grey-streaked Flycatcher on spring migration (Birding Hong Kong archive)
May began with unsettled weather. Temperatures did not rise above 28⁰C, and for the most part it was refreshingly cool and cloudy. Rain showers were sometimes heavy and winds were fresh easterlies. Such weather conditions in spring can be good for migrants and early May did not disappoint.

Grey-faced Buzzard on Po Toi, 11 May 2019
Unfortunately this bird was in a poor condition - presumably from exhaustion - and apparently died later in the day.
Unfortunately this bird was in a poor condition - presumably from exhaustion - and apparently died later in the day.
The unsettled weather continued until the afternoon of 9th, after which conditions improved quickly, the clouds thinned and the temperature rose. Migrant bitterns were in evidence and good numbers of typical late spring migrants – Brown Shrikes, Arctic Warblers and Grey-streaked Flycatchers – were widespread. In addition, there were number of sightings of migrants reported on dates later than the previous “latest date” records; these are detailed below. (It should be noted that such records – as with any rare or unusual sightings - may be subject to assessment by the HKBWS Records Committee.)
The hazards of migration were sadly exemplified at Po Toi on 11 May when a sick and exhausted Grey-faced Buzzard, as well as a Yellow Bittern, apparently died within a short period of being discovered.
