久しぶりにアオハライソヒヨドリ
与那国島への出張があったので、空き時間に鳥見。与那国に長期滞在している方から鳥情報を得ましたが、ちょうど端境期にあたったようで、与那国島らしい鳥たちは抜けていました。アオハライソヒヨドリは3週間ほど滞在している個体を見ることができました。^^
An adult male Blue Rock Thrush. It has been staying for quite a long time — about three weeks at this point.
It was catching insects in the air.
White Wagtails were everywhere. For some reason, all males.
A flock of Eastern Yellow Wagtails had moved into an open area near the coast. They are very commonly seen in the Yaeyama Islands, but this flock seemed to have just arrived at Yonaguni Island, and it gave a real sense of the spring migration.
A flock of Olive-backed Pipits had moved into the farm track.
A Pacific Golden Plover was alone in the grassland along the coast.
