Continuing bird reported from this location since Saturday 04 Oct 25. Initially heard in the vicinity of rusty fuel depot towers while on the phone to another eBirder at 08:35. Then photographed atop said tower, 08:42 - 08:45. Short sound recording also obtained, which matches Xeno Canto recordings from China, rather than Merlin recording of European Pica pica; sounding quite different to North American P. hudsonia. Close examination of photos shows a definite bluish-violet sheen from some angles on the wing - this is also said to support P. serica rather than P. pica or P. hudsonia.
