Birdwatching in Maioka Koen (June 5, 2011)

As wet season has been started, it was humid and cloudy today.  Not many birds were seen, though a female Narcissus Flycatcher and a few Asian Stubtails were still there.  Great Tit has already have his/her new family members while Hwamei was very vocally calling. 

I mostly enjoyed photographing insects as below.
