October's firsts

Some birds are late, others early. Below the first Wryneck and Stonechat of the season. Still skittish and shy. Not great pictures yet. Maybe another day。


Eurasian Wryneck, アリスイ




Siberian Stonechat, ノビタキ







In a waterlogged field nearby: Garganey, シマアジ 3 or 4 birds



Wood Sandpiper, タカブシギ (3) and Common Snipe, タシギ (20or more)



As the sun disappeared and the sky turned red, Black-winged Stilts, セイタカシギ (4)





There are so many Black-tailed Gulls, ウミネコ A large flock hangs around the bottom part of Hakata Bay, between Odo and Imajuku. They are the small dot, floating on the water, dwarfed by the Great Egrets, ダイサギ that also came in great numbers



Every year a Vega Gull, セグロカモメ comes to the nearest pontoon in our harbor. Is it the same one as last year? Truly a beautiful adult!
