竹富島でリュウキュウアオバズク
仕事の撮影で竹富島に行ったのですが、空き時間に怪しい場所を回ってみるとアオバズクの営巣がありました!!
竹富島は結構な密度で、アオバズクが生息している感じです。コノハズクの鳴き声も聞こえますが、そちらは見つけられませんでした。
A male and female Brown Hawk-Owl perched side by side. They appear to be nesting in a tree hollow very close by.
Eyes like glass marbles.
A Brown Hawk-Owl nesting in a different spot from the one above. I couldn't find its mate…
I only had a 200mm with me, so it's a distant shot.
I also found two Ruddy Kingfisher nest sites. Flat Taketomi Island makes it easy to find birds.
