American Wigeon, Falcated Duck, Garganey nr 3

Later I went in search of the hybrid American Wigeon, アメリカヒドリ again to get a better look at its colors. I found it at the mudflats, but the light was not good.



Drab-colored and mostly recognized by the white marking in the middle of the head, extending under the eyes to the cheeks. There is a hint of green above the eye







The afternoon light was better, but I didn't see him any more.
So I looked at the Falcated ducks, ヨシガモ. Impressive birds with their arching back feathers and bright green head. Below with a Eurasian Wigeon, ヒドリガモ









On the left another Garganey, シマアジ in the middle of the mudbank. He had been sleeping most of the time, but decided to wake up just before I left.
