Flycatchers and Warblers
I searched for birds in an area where Black-naped Oriole has been appearing repeatedly over the past few days. I couldn't find the Black-naped Oriole itself, but Arctic Warbler, Eastern Crowned Warbler, Dark-sided Flycatcher, and Grey-streaked Flycatcher turned up in good numbers.
Grey-streaked Flycatchers moving through in numbers during the Chinese Sparrowhawk season.
Asian Brown Flycatcher near the summit of the mountain.
Also Asian Brown Flycatcher. On Ishigakijima almost all of them are Grey-streaked Flycatcher, with Asian Brown and Dark-sided very rarely seen, but this year I've been finding quite a few.
While waiting for Black-naped Oriole, a Lesser Whitethroat appeared.
Following the Lesser Whitethroat above, an Eastern Crowned Warbler also appeared.
Found a female Blue-and-white Flycatcher deep in the bushes. There were about three Blue-and-white Flycatchers in total.
An Ishigaki Tit also appeared, hunting for prey.
