Long-tailed Rosefinch、ベニマシコ

For the first time in two years

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）
