ヤツガシラ5羽!! (動画あり)

今年はヤツガシラの渡りが早くて多いですねー。寒波の影響?

きょうは、5羽観察の4羽撮影できました。1日で見つけた数では過去最高です。1羽撮影を逃したのは、カラスに追われて遠くに飛び見失ったので…。^^;

Eurasian Hoopoe

This was the individual furthest along in its moult.

This one has ruffled feathers around the face — mid-moult.

It was foraging with its crest raised. A slightly nervous individual.

While I was watching this bird, the nervous Eurasian Hoopoe from above came flying over. ^^
