リュウキュウアカショウビンとカワセミ

アカショウビンもいよいよ少なくなってきました。石垣島では数少なく、警戒心が強いカワセミが田んぼにいました。

シマアカモズを1羽確認。ツメナガセキレイやシギチは少しずつですが増えています。

Ruddy Kingfisher

A Ruddy Kingfisher in tatters from moulting before its southward migration. ^^;

This spot must be a departure point for Ruddy Kingfishers heading south — I can observe them here every year around the end of the season.

Common Kingfisher

It looks well over one size smaller than the Ruddy Kingfisher. Very wary, so it stays far away. ^^;
