GUIDED BIRDWATCHING TOUR
We'll drive you around Ishigaki Island to wherever the birds are showing best that day. Observation is mostly from inside the vehicle, and we keep it to a maximum of 3 guests so everyone can take their time.

As expected of a raptor — and this look, even as a juvenile!!
This individual showed no fear of people whatsoever.
This individual was on the far side of the field. Doesn't seem to like humans much….

A female Osprey against a blue sky.
It seemed to be a favourite perch — they kept coming back to it after each rendezvous. The upper bird is the male, the lower the female.

With the Extender EF2×III, AF on centre point only is tricky.
早起きは三文の徳。^^
今朝も、仕事に行く前2時間ほどカンムリワシウォッチング!!
1200mmは大きく撮れていいんだけど、まともに撮ろうとするといろいろ大変…。^^;
No crop. Fills the frame completely — what presence!!
Also no crop. With the 600mm and 2× extender, the Crested Serpent Eagle fills the frame. ^^;
Spots prey and dives!!

I thought it was flying toward me, but it banked away halfway. ^^;
Diving steeply into a stream.
It clouded over before 6 a.m., so the light is really dark. ^^;
