A Long-billed Dowitcher オオハシシギ

Despite very poor conditions after sunset, I was very so happy that slightly summer plumage was visible on a Long-billed Dowitcher. In addition, it seems that it was the day of the stay for the bird before the start of the long journey to breeding area, because I could not see the bird anywhere else from the following day onwards.

日没後で光の条件がかなり厳しかったのですが、ある方から現地で教えて頂いて、腹部の夏羽がだいぶ進行したオオハシシギを観察できました。今のところ、私にとって、この日がオオハシシギ確認の最後の日となっています。
