秋の渡り、アオアシシギもやってきた

金武の田んぼでアオアシシギに出会えました。 昨日のキアシシギ、アカアシシギ と合わせて3色の信号がそろった。^^

セイタカシギやムナグロも数羽ずつ入っていた。ヒバリシギとタカブシギは数え切れないくらい。アマサギも増えていた。

Common Greenshank

Got to see a Greenshank still in partial breeding plumage. ^^

Common Greenshank

Dragonflies were gathering in large numbers in the drainage channel to lay eggs. I wonder if the Common Greenshank eats dragonfly eggs too?

Black-winged Stilt

A few Black-winged Stilts turned up.

Pacific Golden Plover

Most of the Pacific Golden Plovers were resting on the paddy bunds. They looked tired — perhaps just arrived from migration?
