Heard that distinctive call and went looking — found two Japanese Wagtails on a distant greenhouse. There are a handful of records for Okinawa Island, but none yet for Ishigaki.

Black Kite records are rare on Ishigaki too; it feels like one turns up maybe once every few years. There are plenty of Black-winged Kites, though… ^^;

A Grey-headed Lapwing turns up on Ishigaki about once a year. They breed in rice paddies all over Aichi Prefecture — must be nice.
