Another rainy day - on Sunday, our day off!
I wanted to go to that field in the NE, but I have yet to get a chance. There are some interesting birds there, one of them a Red-breasted Flycatcher, ニシオジロビタキ. I was thinking about it, but decided to go to the nearest park, 5 min. from home. Lots of White-eyes were noisily moving around. Between them a Goldcrest, キクイタダキ high up. When I came to the spot where the R-b Flycatcher was seen 10 years ago I got a surprise. Who is that? Another R-b Flycatcher!
Not as friendly as some I had to wait a bit for it to come out. While waiting I saw the Red-flanked Bluetail, ルリビタキand guess what? A small raptor flew out of the trees. Not bigger than a pigeon. Japanese Sparrowhawk, ツミ?! Maybe that was the bird Mr. K. had seen...
