Pied Avocet, Oriental Pratincole, Northern Lapwing, Black-faced Spoonbill and others
Autumn migration on Ishigaki Island is winding down, but an out-of-season typhoon drove in a greater variety of birds.
A Pied Avocet arrived at a paddy field near the town centre.
Four Pied Avocets turned up at a different site from the individual above.
The Oriental Pratincole looked quite exhausted.
Northern Lapwings confirmed at multiple sites. As in previous years, all are juveniles.
The Black-faced Spoonbill is moving around the island.
The first Mallards of the season arrived as a pair.
Black-winged Stilts looking worn out from the strong wind.
A wintering Common Greenshank.
Common Snipe in wintering mode here and there.
Eurasian Coots, which usually concentrated at Shiromizu, have scattered around the island due to attacks from the Eastern Buzzard.
