Birdwatching in Nogawa River, Tokyo (31 January, 2021)
This is sixth winter for the male Garganey in Nogawa. Normally, Garganey is a passage migrant in Japan. So, it is very unusual to see the duck in winter season. Besides the duck, there were Common Kingfisher, Dusky Warbler (very hard to see) and Egrets.

Birdwatching in Minuma-Koen, Saitama (January 31, 2021)
A male Baikal Teal has been staying in the park. This is his 5th winter. Somehow, he never brings his partner. Normally, Baikal Teal is very shy and wary duck. Probably, I will not find any other Baikal Teal which is so tame and allows to approach within 1 meter.
Besides the Baikal Teal, there were a small flock of Brambling, three Pale Thrush, several Dusky Thrush and a few Hawfinches were observed.

Birdwatching in Maioka Park (January 30, 2021)
A cold morning but sunu. There are at least two Eurasian Woodcock, more than two Eastern Water Rail, two Ruddy Crake and a Wryneck. As I have seen only Woodcock in this winter, I just briefly visited the park in this morning. I was so lucky to see Wryneck whenever I arrived. However, nothing else was seen afterward. Well, probably I have to go back there again....
