ヤエヤマボタル
今夜はそこそこ飛んでくれましたが、カメラのセットした場所がね…。^^;
あと、50mmの使い方忘れ気味。
Lots of them flew behind the camera. A miss. ^^;
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.

先週は3個体ほどしか光りませんでしたが、今日はぼちぼち。
来月からが本番ですね。^^
The usual spot had become unusable, so I tried a different location. ^^
It got dark while I was searching, so the shots aren't great. Hoping the temperature and humidity will rise and the undergrowth will fill in nicely.
春は、ヤツガシラに会わんとね。^^
The crest is what Eurasian Hoopoes are all about, right? ^^
I see Eurasian Hoopoes every year, and they are always eating these wingless cockroaches. ^^;
Cute even with the crest folded down.
最初に現れたときは足が震えました。
一生懸命保護されているのですが、生息環境が消失しているので個体数がなかなか増えないそうです。
動画も撮れました。^^
It's huge. Being an owl, it showed up without a sound despite its size.
A second one appeared.
オオワシよりオジロワシのが好みです。地味で…。^^;
There's a quiet dignity to it. ^^
Circling above a flock of Red-crowned Cranes.
We're making eye contact!!
Spots prey and dives!!
Appears out of nowhere and the Red-crowned Cranes are startled into the air. ^^
It suits the drift ice too.
Fish acquired!!
Pretty understated. ^^;
