Right where the Ibisses were feeding, you could hear their call. As Waxwings do, they line up neatly on the wires, then suddenly attack a tree with berries and "disappear".
Look, 2!
none...
How many years since I saw these birds? There was that flock of over 1000 birds in 2016 - in Portugal. Saga was also 10 years ago. And now this year, 4 birds and easy to find. What a treat! (I took too many photos - when will we see them again?)
A few hours in the park on April 28th. It was surprisingly quiet. He??? It's end of April, we should hear many migrating birds! Only the Thrushes were calling. I walked around, a flycatcher was quickly flying up. A female Blue-and-White. A second one stopped by, ever so briefly. Asian Brown. Around the flower beds some butterflies were active. Then, just when I wanted to leave, a Yellow Flycatcher came to take a bath.

After reading about the foreign wagtails, I went out to search for them in the west. It was a rainy day; I found none. But... I saw a fox! And it was wagging its tail to me 😉
Japanese fox, キツネ
The one and only Wood Sandpiper, タカブシギ in the field, would he be glad to have the place to himself?
We are in the middle of the spring crossing, but there are very few birds here in Fukuoka. Walking around my various checkpoints, I find orchids and insects.
