| Fukushimagata Niigata, Japan May 15, 2016 |
It was early summer out there today. I went for bit of a walk around Fukushimagata. Didn't really find anything new. The bird of the day was "Grey Heron". They were everywhere. Also spot-billed Duck and Mallard. A small sprinkling of egrets and other small herons but I didn't take any pics.
I also saw Oriental Goldfinch, Oriental Reed Warblers, sparrows, Chestnut-cheeked Starlings, and Black-eared Kites. I realised today that I haven't seen Ospreys here for a least 3 years now. They were always here before that during summer. I think the trees are less now.

Looks like you had a nice sunny day down there, nuce Kite BIF too.
Hello Russel!:) Wowwee!:) The closeup image of the Large-billed Crow is fab, and great sightings and captures of the birds in flight.,..I like the image of the Black-eard Kite also, and the beautiful photo of the mountain range.
Yes, Stu. It was a beautiful sunny day here.
Thank you for the comment. The Large-billed Crow was a bit menacing up close. I was lucky with Black-eared Kite passing by so closely as well.
Nice shots....especially the kite and the spotbill.
