Tidal flats of Saga in February

 The time was a bit off. High tide at 11am is not very high and a little late for good lighting. Many images were back-lit. It's just a recording of what was there and of what I wanted to see.


Saunders's Gulls, ズグロカモメ in flight



mixed with Dunlins, ハマシギ



The 2 Oystercatchers, ミヤコドリ that stayed for the winter





Many Curlews, mostly Eurasian, ダイシャクシギ and a Bar-tailed Godwit, オオソリハシシギ







One Far-Eastern Curlew, ホウロクシギ on the right



The 2 smaller birds are Long-billed Dowitchers, オオハシシギ



Then there was a Red Knot, コオバシギ in winter plumage, among all the Grey Plovers, ダイセン





Another Godwit: Black-tailed, オグロシギ



Eurasian Spoonbills, ヘラシギ in the creek
