Marsh Sandpiper, Common Greenshank, Common Redshank, and Others
First record of a juvenile Marsh Sandpiper this season. Common Greenshank, Common Redshank, Black-winged Stilt, Wood Sandpiper, Long-toed Stint, and Red-necked Stint all appear to be passing through Ishigaki in a steady stream, with the cast turning over continuously.
The first Marsh Sandpiper juvenile of the season. Already in first-winter plumage.

Common Redshank in first-winter plumage. There were several individuals.
A Wood Sandpiper juvenile that looked quite large.
The first Black-winged Stilt juvenile of the season.
An adult and juvenile Black-winged Stilt were having a dispute. Whether they were parent and chick or strangers, I couldn't tell.
Little Stints are also increasing in number.
Small flocks of Little Stints have been moving into the paddies.
The moult stages vary widely — never gets old watching them.
Pacific Golden Plovers have also increased considerably in number.
