リュウキュウアカショウビン(死骸)

今日は、朝から夏のような天気。^^;

アカショウビンも7個体確認できました。撮影できたのは2羽だけ。両方とも今季初撮影。^^

営巣の穴掘りをしていた所を確認しにいったら、営巣木の前でツミに襲われたと思われるアカショウビンの残骸が…。

I rushed the shot and ended up about 2 stops overexposed. Fixed it in post…. ^^;

Ruddy Kingfisher

Dark and backlit. A record shot at least. ^^;

Left one has the upper mandible, right one has the lower.

The feathers had been plucked too.

Too good to leave behind, so I took it home. ^^
