Black-faced Spoonbill / Ringed / flagged bird

A Black-faced Spoonbill with flag ring J15. This individual was first recorded at Sankaku Pond on 8 November last year, and I contacted an acquaintance photographer at the Okinawa Times, and it was also published in that paper. This is its tenth consecutive year of arrival since 2007.
