I'm from the Far East

Far Eastern Curlew
Numenius madagascariensis
I am a Japanese birder and an undergraduate studying life science(a kind of molecular biology) at the Rikkyo University in Tokyo.
I'll post about common birds(in Japan) in broken English at rare intervals.
Thank you.
Okay, let me start.
I went to Shigenobu River in Ehime prefecture on Sunday.
The river was under construction however, Far Eastern Curlew was there. I think it's very rare because I watched it at middle course of the river (Usually Curlews are observed at a river mouth, you know?).
Anyway, it was so cold. God, it's already springtime!
