Cyornis at SVC

At the SVC office in Siem Reap on Thursday 29th a female Cyornis flycatcher appeared, which I initially took to be Hainan Blue. Here's a couple of photos:

 A slightly unusual place for one to be and rather bright on the throat and breast with a clear demarcation between this and the very clean looking breast. These things are tough!

  1. Indeed, takes a while to get your head around them! I think this is a Hainan, they can vary a little. See http://orientalbirdimages.org/search.php?p=17&Bird_ID=2646&Bird_Family_ID=&pagesize=1
