今季9羽目のカンムリワシ幼鳥

8月下旬に今季初のカンムリワシ幼鳥が出てから約1カ月で9羽目の幼鳥が確認されました。

私自身が見たのは今回の個体で2羽目。情報はもらうのですが、見に行く時間がなかったり、タイミングが悪かったり…。

カンムリワシは、これから冬にかけて成鳥、幼鳥ともに出会いが増えます。

A juvenile Crested Serpent Eagle that has been in the same area for the past few days. It looked a little off, possibly not catching food, so this is an individual that needs to be watched.
