The Japanese crested ibis which was found in the vicinity of Sanjo city Kurauchi |
When I knew that a Japanese crested ibis came flying in the Sanjo city Sakae district on March 31 with a newspaper, and were watched a Japanese crested ibis, it was to perform it in a shopping occasion.
Susas ran in the mountains including the neighborhood of Sakae district Yoshino by car at about 1:00 p.m., but were beginning to give up it, and found a flying bird from the Mitsuke direction to the Sanjo city area direction in main country path Nagaoka / Mitsuke / Sanjo line in the sky which fell of the hail without being found when I ran a car, and stopped a car.
In the inside of car, "a bill was long"; "but is not a heron"; "way of flying was strange"; "indeed felt it to be different from a genuine article" and a bird to usually see, but was half in doubt whether was a Japanese crested ibis.
The bird turned, and went down; when got it, and ran a car to the one, it was a Japanese crested ibis the bird which was white approximately 20 meters in a remote rice field.
When it "was really a Japanese crested ibis", according to Aoi, pushed the shutter of the digital camera with great excitement absorbedly in the inside of car.
Looked around restlessly whether the Japanese crested ibis looked for bait.
The size looked about the same as a heron, but a bill was long, and the face was red, and the feather was pinkness-like.
Aoi gets off a car, and were going to approach a Japanese crested ibis, but say that I am surprised at the sound that closed a door and flew away.
When I was pleased with Susa with the good luck at the end of the year when "indeed I did not think a Japanese crested ibis to be seen, and it was said, and it was in a memory", and Aoi "wanted you to try it hard though it would be cold", encouraged the Japanese crested ibis which spent the winter of the intense cold only with one.
