No expectations.
On Day 3 of my Taiwan trip, I decided to drop by the Linsen and Kangle Park in Taipei for some quick early morning birding as it was near my hotel. These are urban parks located right smack in the middle of the city so I was not expecting much.

After about an hour, just as I was about to leave, I spotted this beautiful Eastern Yellow Wagtail (lifer) perched on a bare tree. This bird in an uncommon migrant in Singapore. After observing the bird for awhile, it took off to the ground to hunt for insects.

Always happy to add an unexpected tick to my life list.
