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.
7羽のオオヒシクイが渡ってきています。^^
It was very wary and wouldn't let me get close, so cropped. ^^;
As long as I kept more than a paddy field's width away, it didn't get alarmed.
Winter plumage Javan Pond Heron.
A Black-winged Stilt that looks like it has bloodshot eyes. ^^ The most beautiful wader that comes through Ishigaki.
13、14日と2000羽越えの渡りが観察できました!! 20日前後までは条件が良ければ見られるでしょう。
A juvenile crossed almost directly overhead. I noticed too late and only got a rear view… ^^;
Shooting at 600mm, so this is just a small part of the kettle.
The second kettle of the day. ^^
あちらこちらでシマアカモズの高鳴きが聞かれるようになりました。
While most Brown Shrikes are very wary, this male let me shoot up close. ^^
