Isahaya December 2025

When I saw all those images of Short-eared Owls on SM, I thought I'd go and take a chance. It was surprisingly easy. Though I could never compete with the big-lens toting photographers, I was still happy with my results.


Short-eared Owl, コミミズク











What I was not happy about was my chances with the male Hen Harrier. I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. This is all I got:


Male Hen Harrier, ハイイロチュウヒ







Female Hen Harrier, ハイイロチュウヒ







Eastern Buzzard, ノスリ





Female Common Kestrel, チョウゲンボウ



There were many Cranes, ツル flying in big V-s across the reclamation areas.







And at the end of the day the ducks, making loud noises with their wings, like a strong wind suddenly rushing in. They seemed to be Baikal Teals, トモエガモ





Animals included 5 Wild Pigs, 1 Weasel and this Raccoon dog, タヌキ
