June 1st, I set of to the mountain all the way to this place where I had seen the eagle before. A roller coaster ride to some point where a Japanese Sparrowhawk might be nesting produced a lot of excitement. A Ruddy Kingfisher came very close but stayed hidden. However, the mountain Eagle came close! Flying behind our backs, I didn't notice...
Perched on a tree, not too far. For my 300 mm lens it was. Despite the 2.0 tc
with 1.4 tc
with 2.0 tc - less sharp
8 sightings in 1 day, pretty good!

Leaf beetle? ハムシ?
Yellow-legged Tortoiseshell, ヒオドシチョウ
White Admiral, イチモンジチョウ
Fujikobuya Hazukamikiri Longhorn beetle? フジコブヤハズカミキリ?
