I spend a wonderful couple of days on the mountain in lovely weather and all by myself; going my way and doing my thing. The list of birds that I saw is long. The one that I heard even longer, but I didn't take any decent photos. I don't know why. The birds were all too fast for me. Driving in Frankie didn't help of course. Somehow it didn't bother me that much. Seeing the Ruddy Kingfisher, male Copper Pheasant, Northern Hawk-cuckoo, Oriental Cuckoo, Japanese Trushes and the Goldcrests. Hearing the Indian Cuckoo, 2 Grey Nightjars, Oriental Scops owl and Sunda Scops Owl I was perfectly happy.

Mt Hiko
An Eurasian Nuthatch, ゴジュウカラ was feeding right in front of me, but the images turned out greenish and full of noise. Not at all like my usual stuff.
Eurasian Jays, カケス seemed all dull and colorless
My only shots of Japanese Thrushes, クロツグミ though I saw many more
Even the numerous Wrens, ミソサザイ refused to cooperate
There goes the Oriental Cuckoo, ツツドリ after I heard it calling right in front of me.
No Flycatchers to show, though there were many around
Luckily there were butterflies to keep me happy at midday
Kumogata Fritillary, クモガタヒョウモン
Lillacine Bushbrown, コジャノメ. A first
Mizutabirako, ミズタビラコ
Some more small wings. Esakimon Kitsune Kamemushi shieldbug, エサキモンキツノカメムシ
