具志干潟でオニアジサシ、ダイシャクシギ、ミサゴ
今日も具志干潟へ。釣り人の横で離発着する戦闘機や旅客機を見ながらのバードウオッチングでした。
昨日、5羽ほどいたオニアジサシは、2羽しか確認できませんでした。ミサゴは、入れ替わり立ち替わり獲物を求めてやってきます。ダイビングして魚を捕まえるシーンを撮りたいのですが、北風なので後ろ姿しか撮れず…。
ダイシャクシギは2羽に増えていました。
The two remaining Lesser Crested Terns rode the north wind and climbed higher and higher, shrinking to specks. I thought they were heading off on migration, but they wheeled back. ^^
The fishing line that had been hanging from the beak of the juvenile Lesser Crested Tern was no longer visible. Did it swallow the line completely, or did it come free…?
The Far Eastern Curlews had increased to two.
An Osprey arrived carrying a half-eaten fish. Chased off by a crow, perhaps?
There are several Ospreys at Gushi tidal flat, and they occasionally have minor skirmishes.
