A banded Ryukyu Scops Owl
A banded Ryukyu Scops Owl whose breeding I confirmed two years ago has been relocated after two years.
This individual is a female, one of 134 birds banded on Hateruma Island for research in 2021. The sighting was also published in the newspaper on 23 September 2023.
Here's hoping I can keep observing her. ^^
A newspaper article dated 23 September 2023. This is a valuable individual that provided the first proof of inter-island movement.
