サシバの空中戦
成鳥サシバと幼鳥サシバが空中戦。
The juvenile Grey-faced Buzzard is on the left, the adult on the right. An overwhelming win for the adult.
The juvenile makes a run for it. ^^;

カンムリワシ(動画2本あり)
雨上がりの池のほとりでカエルを捕まえていました。完食しては、次のカエルと大漁のようでした。^^ 2本目の動画はカンムリワシの鳴き声がばっちり入っています。^^
Launching an attack on a frog!!
Frog caught. If you're grabbed like that, it's hopeless… ^^;
Heading out again!!
Frog caught. It tore apart a toxic Cane Toad and ate every bit of it. Seems the toxin was no problem. ^^;
When it heard another Crested Serpent Eagle calling nearby it called back, but it was getting the worse of it and looked rattled. ^^;

レンカクほか
今日は、釣り師がいないのでレンカクがいました。^^
It was a bit far… ^^;
Big feet for walking on aquatic plants.
There was also a Black-crowned Night Heron — not a penguin. ^^

カンムリワシ3羽(動画あり)
今日は、強風が吹いてカンムリワシがなかなか見当たらず…。
It was looking down over the paddies from a windbreak grove, searching for prey. A bit out of focus… ^^;
An unexpected Crested Serpent Eagle on the way home. Quite close!!
Kan-chan the Crested Serpent Eagle. It was sheltering from the wind.

サシバ渡らず(動画あり)
崎枝で観察してみましたが、サシバの渡る気配はありませんでした。水田地帯には越冬サシバがいました。
For a bird that had just arrived on migration, this Grey-faced Buzzard was not particularly nervous. ^^
