ホウロクシギ、チュウシャクシギ
ホウロクシギ3羽とチュウシャクシギ2羽が名蔵湾に飛来していました。師匠によるとダイシャクシギもいたそうですが、私は見つけられず…。^^; ホウロクシギの1羽は左足を傷めていて、 先日、田んぼで見つけた個体 と同じと思われます。
田んぼで休んでいたシギチは潮が引く頃になると申し合わせたように海岸に移動しました。
At high tide, three Far Eastern Curlews were resting in the paddy fields.
The Whimbrel was also taking a break in the paddy fields until the tide went out.
Once the tide started dropping, they moved to the coast and were already catching crabs. The paddy fields have no view of the sea — can they really sense the tides with an accurate internal clock?
The Whimbrel also moved to the coast as soon as the tide began to ebb.
