Oriental Pratincole — the southward passage has passed its peak and sightings have become scarce. One bird came down into a rice paddy in the pouring rain.

Black-winged Stilt, juvenile plumage transitioning to first-winter. Juveniles are increasing on Ishigaki Island in the latter part of the autumn migration.

Common Redshank, juvenile. Moulting into first-winter plumage.

Long-toed Stint, adult winter plumage.

I thought this was a Long-toed Stint adult in late summer plumage, but it appears to be a worn juvenile. Long-toed Stints in adult winter, adult summer, and juvenile plumages are all present together.

Wood Sandpiper. Moulting into first-winter plumage.

Common Snipe, juvenile. Pin-tailed Snipe and Swinhoe's Snipe numbers have dropped off, and most birds now are Common Snipe.

Dunlin, juvenile plumage transitioning to first-winter. On Ishigaki Island, it is almost exclusively juveniles that arrive. I haven't seen an adult this season.

Common Redshank, juvenile. Moulting into first-winter plumage.

Marsh Sandpiper, juvenile plumage transitioning to first-winter. Right? Hard to tell with the rain-soaked feathers. ^^;

Black-bellied Tern, adult. Summer plumage to winter plumage. Oriental Pratincoles move through in concentrated waves, but Black-bellied Terns keep trickling through.
