オオタカ 2025：このシーンもそろそろ

Copulation

They had been copulated with high frequency until the other day. But now, almost stopped that.
It might means in the next stage, egg laying and incubation. Hope so!

先日まで度々やっていましたが、場所と回数が変化。これで次の段階に入りそうですね。

オオタカ 2025：地面からの飛び出し

Northern Goshawk momentarily moving

This male sometimes had been investigated on the ground, we knew. So expect to meet like that and want to photograph flying off from the ground.
Fortunately encountered such a situation very near.

猛禽の動きのあるシーンは接近フレームアウトのリアル感が好きです。チャンスは極稀ですが。(今回は水浴び直後です)

This time of year, we watch them with cherry blossoms in full bloom. Early-blooming species 'Okan Zakura'.

花盛りの大寒桜にヒヨドリが群がっていました。ほぼ日本固有種なので海外のバーダーさんには人気です。

オオタカの水浴び：近い！

Northern Goshawk at the waterside

Northern Goshawk just around the corner! about 15 ft. Didn't care about me, even no need the hide to photograph.
It came flying to more near point and alighted on the surface of the water facing me.
After that It started bathing. "No way! just 10 ft, kidding me?"

距離5mでいきなり遭遇のオオタカ。

何と、目の前3mに飛び移り！

そして驚きの目前水浴びです。

ズーミングや露出補正で忙しい忙しい😆

オオタカ 2025：シーズンの始まり

Northern Goshawk of JAPAN 2025

The season has been started for Northern Goshawk breeding. In this site, they're got grit and not give a damn nuisance crows. We wanna observe and photograph active scenes for wildlife birds of prey in urban.

今回オオタカの観察を中心に何年ぶりかで撮影を再開しようかと。

目の前5m, 大寒桜の古木の♂。

枝が密集する林で♀がアタック、結果は残念でしたが。
