The fields that held a lot of water a few days ago are drying up so fast, some have no water anymore, just mud. Other fields seem to contain the water and the level hardly changes, they are too full. It's difficult, specially for small waders. There are just a fewplaces for them to go.
I set out, looking for the Red-necked Stints, トウネン - my favorite - they should still be around
Found them and took too many pictures...
At the far end a larger bird stepped out from the thick bunches of rice plants
Ruff, エリマキシギ a small bird, so probably a young female
It stayed in view for a short time
There was a time that I hardly looked at Wood Sandpipers, タカブシギ. Now I search for them.
Again at the far end, one Terek Sandpiper, ソリハシシギ appeared briefly
Same as a Snipe, most likely a Common Snipe, タシギ
One more, accross the road.
