Japan 05May08

From Yamane

From 1^st MAY to tomorrow, I'm having a long holiday. Today, I visited my favourite place again.

Also today, I could see BLUE-AND-WHITE FLYCATCHERs. More than 5 couples, there're. Already they started breeding there. After some weeks, JAPANESE PARADISE FLYCATCHERs and Little Cuckoos will come there. I'll go there once more for seeing them. :-)

I report to you about the birds that I found today.
