A Wild Bird in June

Unlike Long-billed Plover, a resident bird that can be seen at Gohouden all year round,
Little Ringed Plover Comes to Shinshu as a summer migrant bird.

They look similar from a distance, but Little Ringed Plover has a golden eye ring.
The top photo shows a typical pose, but in the second photo it is stretching its neck and gazing,
as if it is looking for something tasty in the distance.

Its neck can stretch that far.
And the protrusion on the underside of its beak is impressive!
If it get pinched by something like that, there's no escaping it!
