Ruddy Kingfisher preening.

A stretch after preening.

Male Ruddy Kingfisher.

Female Ruddy Kingfisher.

So cute.

Before 7 p.m., the prey it catches are freshly emerged cicadas. Soft and they look delicious.

There was a cumulonimbus cloud low on the horizon, so the sun wasn't visible as it dropped below the waterline.

Magic hour!!

Not to be outdone by the Yaeyama Fireflies, the Pale Evening Brown Firefly takes flight!!

The Yaeyama Fireflies still seem to be going strong.

The Ruddy Kingfisher at the usual spot. This individual is quite wary.

An easy-to-observe Ruddy Kingfisher nest. The male was several tens of metres away from here.
