A first-winter Pied Avocet, arriving alone.

This shrike was very wary, and I only just managed a shot of it perched at a distance. A type without white wing patches.

Chinese Pond Heron (right) and Purple Heron.

Medium Egret. Great Egrets rarely make it to Okinawa or Ishigaki Island.

Cattle Egret. Just a hint of breeding plumage coming in.

Ducks resting in a waterway. Common Teal and Eurasian Wigeon make up the majority.

Common Redshank, first-winter. A few birds were gathered in the usual spot.

Black-winged Stilt, female, first-winter.

Common Snipe in the distance. Around five birds were flocking together.
