Black-headed Gull Non-breeding Shinano River, Niigata, Japan |
Some common Niigata birds for this time of year. I haven't been out much but I haven't completely forgotten about my birds.
After a long time of "no-sees" for Osprey I was delighted to have one fly right over my shoulder with a big fish. No camera so I just had to stand back and enjoy the moment.
