シベリアムクドリ登場!! カラムクドリ、コムクドリなども増加
シベリアムクドリがカラムクドリ主体の群れに交じっていました。この4日後にはもう1羽増えて2羽となりました。石垣島にはカラムクドリ、コムクドリ、ギンムクドリ、ムクドリも滞在中です。
A beautiful male Daurian Starling. Some juvenile feathers are visible, so it may be in first-winter plumage.
A Daurian Starling perched in a Portia tree.
It was moving around foraging, but would occasionally stop to rest and preen.
Pecking at Portia tree fruits.
The Daurian Starling was also eating Banyan fruits.

It showed no wariness at all and could be observed at close range.
Swallowing a Portia tree fruit whole.
It took a while for the fruit to pass down the throat.
A male White-shouldered Starling. It too was eating Portia tree fruits.
It occasionally came down to the ground to pick up fallen Banyan fruits.
A male Chestnut-cheeked Starling was also moving with the same flock.
There were three Japanese Paradise Flycatchers, apparently on passage.
Grey-streaked Flycatchers make up the majority on Ishigakijima, but I was also able to confirm Asian Brown Flycatcher.
