秋の渡り、ムナグロがやってきた

石垣島にもムナグロが渡ってきました。大浜海岸で6羽が休んでいました。他は、キョウジョシギやシロチドリ、アオアシシギ、キアシシギなど。

ツメナガセキレイも今季初観察。

Pacific Golden Plover

In intense heat with heat shimmer rising, a Pacific Golden Plover was preening.

Greater Sand Plover

Peering through binoculars, I could see a Greater Sand Plover scurrying back and forth along the sandy beach.

Common Greenshank

Two Common Greenshanks were chasing small fish around. The one on the right was still in summer plumage; the one on the left had almost fully moulted into winter plumage.
