Birdwatching in Inzai City (9 June, 2013)

I went to tick a kind of missing puzzle in this morning. Great Bittern is probably a breeding resident in eastern Chiba to southern Ibaraki Pref. and is locally not uncommon. I didn't predict they fly so frequently and closely. Although I took a few shots, they are still far away from satisfaction....
Another purpose, Japanese Reed Bunting was not really cheeful and far away for photographing today.
