金武の田んぼの様子

Sept. 16, 2018

数日前の金武の田んぼの様子です。ウズラシギやトウネン、ヒバリシギ、アカアシシギ、タカブシギなどがいます。ジシギは8月後半からチュウジシギが見られるようになって今月に入ってからはタシギも見られるようになってきました。

クロハラアジサシは、数羽の群れが滞在中。数が微妙に減ったり増えたりしています。入れ替わっているのかどうなのか。ハジロクロハラアジサシはいませんでした。

First confirmed on 27 August. This juvenile Common Snipe is my first photographed one of the season.

This is a juvenile Swinhoe's Snipe.

I believe this is an adult Pin-tailed Snipe, but it never came out of the grass and I couldn't get confirmation. Provisionally Pin-tailed Snipe… ^^;

Adult Sharp-tailed Sandpiper. Moulting from breeding to non-breeding plumage.

Adult Common Redshank. Also in the process of moulting from breeding to non-breeding plumage.

Adult Red-necked Stint. Moulting from breeding to non-breeding plumage.

A Long-toed Stint chasing off a Red-necked Stint.

Wood Sandpiper, adult. Moulting from breeding to non-breeding plumage.

Whiskered Tern, moulting from juvenile to first-winter plumage.

Also a Whiskered Tern. Moulting from juvenile to first-winter plumage.
