Seen yesterday morning, around 10 AM, with sunny weather around 20 degrees C, in Hattori Ryokuchi Koen:
In Uzuwa Pond:
1 Little Grebe in breeding plumage ( Little Grebes breed in this park every year)
8 Spot-billed Ducks in 2 groups at opposite ends of the pond
2 Northern Shovelers, both males, not in eclipse, swimming and feeding side by side
2 Green-winged Teal, swimming together: 1 female, and 1 male in eclipse
2 Eurasian Wigeons, swimming near each other. Not sure of the sex: either they were females, or possibly 1 or both were males in eclipse
1 Common Kingfisher, diving for fish
1 Gray Heron, perching
And seen in Shingu Lake: An unusual sight for me:
A male Pochard and a male Tufted Duck, both in breeding plumage, swimming across the lake together
