September 25th. It's a bit of a bleak scene on this cloudy afternoon. All is grey or white except for a little yellow. The bird was not seen when I arrived. Some people who were looking for it turned to leave. I was thinking, where do these Egrets go to rest? Not in the fields, not in the river. Where can I find it? After a while it appeared. It had been standing on a ridge in the concrete wall along the river. Aha. The crown feathers are not as long and pretty as in spring. This punky hairdo suits him - or her
14 Whiskered Terns, クロハラアジサシ were flying around a little lake. I saw them just for a few minutes, they soon moved on.
Again lots of grey. The light was from the wrong direction. I started looking for a better position, but didn't get a chance.
A pretty Shrike, showing some color - at last. It looked like something exotic. But I guess it is just a female Bull-headed Shrike, モズ
Common Snipe, タシギ 1 of many
