April 6 around Imazu

The first Sunday in April, WBSJ day. We walked, talked and counted. There were not many surprises. The highlight was the Stonechat. 


On the mudflats, we saw 1 Black-winged Stilt, セイタカシギ



The American Wigeon, アメリカヒドリ with his black head was still there



In the afternoon a few waders flew in. Wood Sandpiper, タカブシギ





A Hawk landed in the mess of lotus stalks with what? A Snipe?
Female Eurasian Sparrowhawk, ハイタカ







Some of the White Wagtails seemed different. The big apron reaching up to the chin.
Taiwan or East Siberian White Wagtail, M.a.ocularis?





Buff-bellied Pipit, タヒバリ all by itself



Last bird of the afternoon, Swinhoe's Snipe, チュウジシギ
