Few birds and some other small Stuff

Observations while walking in the neighborhood, Nishi-ku. A mixture of birds, bugs, and flowers.


At lunchtime, in the middle of a hot day, a Ruddy-breasted Crake, ヒクイナ came out of the swamp in a park to get some food. Is there a nest in there?




Feeling right at home around the toilets? Barn Swallow, ツバメ



Often seen on the move, but lately very difficult to capture, Green Woodpecker, アオゲラ



Surprise visit to the Bridal Wreath, ミカドアゲハ, Common Jay







Indian Red Admiral, アカタテハ Fresh and young






Goschkevitschi's Labyrinth, サトキマダラヒカゲ 



I thought it was a Holly Blue, ルリシジミ until it opened its wings. A "lifer" for me, Common Hedge Blue, ヤクシマルリシジミ







Cabbage White, モンシロチョウ Group sex





First of the season. Lamy Longhorn, (Ramikamikiri) ラミカミキリ A bit early, on May 20?



Always a pleasure to find the first Nejiki, ネジキの花 of the year



A little off the path there were hundreds of these orchids, Usuki Muyolan, ウスキムヨウラン



What is this???



Bright orange red, it could be seen from far - as far as that is possible in dense woods





Some moths of course. Beni-ikarimonga, ベニイカリモンガ



Unmonkuchiba,  ウンモンクチバ


Sorry for the people who don't like them
