Ryukyu Flycatcher

A male Ryukyu Flycatcher in second-year summer plumage. As it is in its third calendar year, it is presumably taking part in breeding. The pale leg colour and plumage made me wonder at first whether it might be a first-year bird, comparing it with mainland Narcissus Flycatcher, but it appears to be second-year.
