Birdwatching in Shin-Urayasu (10 January, 2021)

 Although Long-tailed Duck has been still staying, he stayed very far away from the coast.  Due to low tide, we missed most of sea birds, which may be seen there including Slavonian and Red-necked Grebe, Lesser Scaup and Common Golden-eye.  Instead of them, we saw a non-breeding plumage of Little Stint.

Bird list is as below.

Black-necked Grebe, Great Cormorant, Eurasian Wigeon, Northern Pintail, Greater Scaup, Siberian Scoter, Red-breasted Merganser, Peregrine Falcon (immature), Eurasian Coot, Kentish Plover, Little Stint, Red-necked Stint, Dunlin, Herring Gull, White Wagtail, Brown-eared Bulbul, Daurian Redstart, Blue Rock Thrush, Japanese White-eye, Eurasian Tree Sparrow, Carrion Crow, Large-billed Crow
