Fourth Upland Buzzard of the season (video)
Two Upland Buzzards found within the space of an hour. Combined with the two from Yonaguni and two from Ishigaki, that makes four individuals confirmed this season. All are juveniles.
A juvenile Upland Buzzard perched at the top of a windbreak.
When it was startled and lost its balance, the features distinctive of Upland Buzzard were clearly visible.
An Upland Buzzard from a different area. Also a juvenile. This Ryukyu Pine seems to be its roost.
Same individual as above. In flight, the size typical of Upland Buzzard is striking.
Grey-faced Buzzard, adult male.
Same individual as above. I feel that the number of Grey-faced Buzzards wintering on Ishigaki Island is decreasing year by year.
