オオルリ / Blue-and-White Flycatcher
I went to the mountains in search of Blue-and-white Flycatcher that had flown in. The valley I explored this time seemed to be a favorite place for them, and I could hear their cheerful chirps coming from many places. I could only hear them, but they did not come down very often. It was a pity.
Still, one male came out close to me. The direct sunlight prevented them from turning a beautiful blue, but that’s OK.
