ジシギ第2波ピーク
ジシギの第2陣がピークを迎えています。ジシギといってもチュウジシギとハリオシギが大半でタシギのピークはまだ先ですね。田んぼには多いところでは1枚に30羽ほどが滞在中で、チュウジシギが大半を占めています。次に多いのがハリオシギでタシギは2〜3羽しかいないようです。

Same individual as above. When it's a typical Pin-tailed Snipe, you can tell even at this distance.

This juvenile Pin-tailed Snipe has appeared in this weblog many times this season. It shows up close, so I keep photographing it… ^^;

This is still a Swinhoe's Snipe, so be careful. Body and tail angle can make it look slender or short, so snipe identification requires close attention.
