Although
I saw the osprey was diving for fish in the watershed drainage for the first
time in two years,
I
couldn't take the moment of diving in time.
Disappointing!

It's the first time I've watched a Falco
peregrinus pealei , but I can't instantly tell the difference between the Falco peregrinus japonensis and the Falco peregrinus pealei .
According to Wikipedia,
In Japan, the subspecies peregrine falcon inhabits year-round (resident birds), and (the subspecies peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus pealei) rarely flies in winter due to overwintering.
Anyhow, rarely meet migratory birds and goshawks, both
last year and this year, and I feel tired.
While I used to be able to shoot in the usual field
without difficulty several years ago.
So, I was a bit excited when encountered a Long-tailed
Rosefinch for the first time in two years, and
I took a few shots immediately, but they disappeared in a
blink of an eye.
That was all in the day!
Long-tailed rosefinch inhabits Japan, China, Kazakhstan,
North Korea, South Korea, and Russia.
In Japan, it breeds as a summer bird in Hokkaido and the
Shimokita Peninsula in Aomori Prefecture and migrates to the south of Honshu as
a winter bird to overwinter. (Cited
from Wikipedia described in Japanese)

The first time to have been appeared a white-bellied green pigeon in this area.
I have heard it have somewhat an injury on the legs.
It is feeding on the fruit of the Round leaf holly.
There is a saying that the best thing to have is a friend. I always learn a lot from this friend about birding technology. I can think...
