From several mountains, high and low, Fukuoka and beyond a compilation. Starting up high in Oita:
Japanese Thrush, クロツグミ Singing from the very top of the highest tree
Flying between those trees: Eurasian Jay, カケス
Briefly stopping in front of me: Willow Tit, コガラ
Near the river, also singing loud: Eurasian Wren, ミソサザエ
Mid April, a bit early for flycatchers, but I could here some and caught some glimpses of the usual ones
A brief stop at a field that had just been burned: Chestnut-eared Bunting, ホオアカ
It was raining, but a flock of 30+ Buff-bellied Pipits, タヒバリ didn't seem to notice. I had never seen these birds at an elevation of about 1000m
Lower mountains around Fukuoka:
2 Asian Brown Flycatchers, コサメビタキ preparing a nest so it seems
Looking happy!
The trees are thick with foliage already. Are there no caterpilars to eat the leafs? I could here the flycatchers, but saw nothing. Just these noisy buggers, Red-billed Leiothrix, ソウシチョウ
Finally after a week I got one: Narcissus Flycather, キビタキ
Alah, out of focus :-(
