12th of April, an afternoon in the park

The 2nd week of April, after the rain. The bird matsuri prime time. 

The afternoon started off with a Blue-and-white Flycatcher, オオルリ

At the same time: Asian Brown Flycatcher, コサメビタキ

several birds

And Ryukyu Minivet, リュウキュウサンショウクイ

Alpine Black Swallowtail, ミヤマカラスアゲハ

Around the bird bath: Narcissus Flycatcher, キビタキ appeared briefly. Feared of the many Bulbuls, maybe.

Not the best photos, but in time better ones will come, I hope.

Eastern Crowned Warbler, センダイムシクイ

And Pale Thrush, シロハラ

Many noisy and cheeky Brown-eared Bulbuls, ヒヨドリ scared off the tits and other small birds.

But this is maybe the only good photograph of the day 😆

A Male Pygmy Woodpecker コゲラ (See the red mark!) shooing off an intruder.

Peeking out of a hole in the tree. Is it a nest?
