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.
今季初のチョウゲンボウを確認しました。アカハラダカやハヤブサも確認されています。
While watching the sandpipers, they were flushed by a juvenile Common Kestrel. ^^;
Adult Crested Serpent Eagle in an elementary school playground. A juvenile has also been showing up nearby.
7月から長逗留しているジャワアカガシラサギが見やすくなっています。台風後に増えたトンボを捕食しようと農道や畔に出てくるので見つけやすいです。
キリアイの幼鳥も滞在中。また台風が近づいてきているのでしばらくは渡れないでしょうね。
ハリオシギ、チュウジシギも滞在中。
Javan Pond Heron targeting dragonflies swarming on a farm road.
The Broad-billed Sandpiper juvenile has been staying for several days.
Pin-tailed Snipe — numbers are down, but they're still here.
An individual that was together with the Pin-tailed Snipe above. So alike I almost thought they were siblings. ^^
Swinhoe's Snipe are still present.
An individual I was able to observe at very close range.
Red-necked Stint and Long-toed Stint numbers are increasing.
