Great Egret

At this time, this is one of the best bird photos I’ve ever taken, I think!

Greater Yellowlegs

Bird names can be so mean sometimes! Only Greater Yellowlegs? But there’s no Greatest Yellowlegs? Seems rude on the part of the bird-namers.

Gray Heron

A very elegant bird preparing for 花見 in Ueno Park!

Common Flameback

A flash of flame darts among the treetops! Thankfully, it’s not a forest fire, but a woodpecker!

Common Redshank

Common?

Collared Kingfisher

Heavy is the head that wears the crown, ‘tis often said.

Pacific Swallow

This polite swallow saved me the trouble of chasing them through the sky by simply already being perched when I arrived! And remaining perched when I left!
