I revisited the bird pool near Tomakomai..............
Last time I only got a fleeting glimpse of a Siberian Blue Robin but this time it was much more showy.
It's usually a very shy skulker so I rarely get to photograph this species.
It was way too dark for any action shots as you can see...................
I didn't see any females.....................
I think you were very fortunate that it was bath time adn this is a fantastic sereis of images.
ReplyDeleteThanks Margaret, the bathtime was a real procession of forest birds actually..........
DeleteVery nice pictures. You must have been elated to get this kind of prolonged opportunity with the bird.
ReplyDeleteYup, I was pretty happy,,,,,,,,,,,
DeleteReal nice pics Stuart. Skulkers like that don't usually give themselves up easily.
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil.............
DeleteSiberian Blue Robin is a real "whoo-hoo !" kind of bird...great set of photos.
ReplyDeleteDo they ever make it down to Hong Kong?
