You are correct and so I owe You an apology ! :(

I mixed with this image showing the same bird in a very similar position (dated 13. September 2015)

No need to apologize as no offense was meant, and no offense was taken whatsoever. I've posted so many photos that it's hard to keep track. It's good to have someone to spot duplicate images.

Do you have to be a Chinese citizen to travel to Woody? How did you get there?

Unlikely any civilian could just book a flight there, you will probably need to prove you have a good reason to go there.

So either local fishermen returning from a visit from the mainland, or civilian technical specialists/consultants working on projects on the island and maybe family of those civilian techies and soldiers based there coming for a visit.

Any civilian allowed on the islands would almost certainly have been given a security brief and been asked to sign some form of NDA on what they saw on the island.

Until they build a huge hotel and actively encourage tourism on one or more of those islands, it will be difficult if not near impossible for regular civilians to just book a flight there and have a nosy because those are essentially largely military outposts and there will be a lot of sensitive work still being carried out there that the PLA would not appreciate being splashed all over the net thanks to some snap-happy tourists.
