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.
なんと、昨日に引き続き今日もアカショウビンが見られました。^^
The bill colour is just enough to tell it's a first-year bird. When I found it, it was eating what appeared to be a stick insect.
It was startled by a Brown-eared Bulbul.
昨日に引き続き、今朝もアカハラダカの渡りを観察してきました。風があまりなく暑かったですが、数百羽のタカ柱も見られました。
A juvenile Chinese Sparrowhawk.
Also a juvenile. At the moment, juveniles make up a large proportion of the flock.
The only kettling of the day. It was an exceptionally dense, impressive kettle.
非常になれた個体でした。顔つきも二枚目で脚、羽毛ともほとんど汚れていません。^^
A beautiful juvenile.
I also tried shooting at 200mm. I left my lens cap behind in the sugarcane field… ^^;
