カンムリワシ、チョウゲンボウほか
隙間時間に鳥見。カンムリワシは活発で成鳥、幼鳥とも出会いは多いです。チョウゲンボウもあちこちで越冬中。
漁港にはウミネコが2羽いました。釣り人のエサを狙っているようでした。
タゲリの群れがあちこちに入りました。一番大きな群れは十数羽。サトウキビ畑の堆肥には毎日、ギンムクドリやツグミがやってきます。
A Crested Serpent Eagle eating a habu.
The familiar Common Kestrel.
Black-tailed Gulls at the fishing port. First-summer (left) and adult summer plumage. Black-tailed Gulls moult as fast as Kentish Plovers, don't they.
A Common Snipe in the grass. Someone was calling it a Swinhoe's Snipe, but it's a Common Snipe.
Northern Lapwing, male. Moulting into first-summer plumage.
Northern Lapwing, female. Also transitioning into first-summer plumage.
Rosy Starling on cattle dung. It has made this a favourite feeding spot and turns up almost every day.
Dusky Thrush, first-winter plumage.
