The yearly autumn trip to Saga was late. Too late to see the Western Sandpiper. It was a super high tide and the birds stayed on the concrete side of the fence a long time. There were so many. All i winterplumage. Overwhelmingly grey. Once a year is not enough to build my confidence
キリアイ, Broad-billed Sandpiper
トウネン, Red-necked Stint
Red Knots, コオバシギ and Dunlins, ハマシギ
On the right 2 Marsh Sandpipers, コアオアシシギ
オオハシシギ, Long-billed Dowitcher
On the fence, birds one by one from the left:
ツルシギ, Spotted Redshank between 2 Knots (Great? Red?) and ダイゼン, Grey Plover
オオソリハシシギ, Bar-tailed Godwit, オバシギ?, Great Knot?, ダイセン, Grey Plover
アカアシシギ, Common Redshank
1 single ミヤコドリ, Eurasian Oystercatcher came flying by
