アカツクシガモ、ベニバト、ソリハシセイタカシギほか
昨年 に続き、今年もアカツクシガモが飛来しました。今季は2羽で警戒心が非常に強いです。
先日のベニバト は滞在10日になりました。天候が悪くて移動できないと思われます。
10月26日から滞在のソリハシセイタカシギ も逗留中。こちらも滞在10日になります。
It was skittish, taking flight every time a rental car approached.

A different individual from the one above. Also a female.

Crimson Sunbirds and Oriental Turtle Doves that had taken refuge at the forest edge, startled by a raptor.
The Pied Avocets that have been staying for a long time. There are two of them, but they are being harassed by a raptor.
A Hen Harrier appeared in the strong wind. The Black-winged Stilts and Eurasian Teals panicked.
A juvenile Ryukyu Sparrowhawk that appeared while I was watching the Greater Racket-tailed Drongo.
A small number of Grey-streaked Flycatchers are also lingering.
Juvenile Common Coot. There are a few white feathers around the neck. Partial albinism?
