Midwinter local Birding in south Hokkaido

Great video Stuart. Those gulls look interesting as we get so few down here. Also that Bullheaded shrike looks more like our Brown Shrike than I thought! Well done👍👍

Excellent footage of the various Gulls (Slaty-backed being a real brute!) and surprised to see such a large flock of Common Gulls - was that this year? And the Grey-capped is more familiarly known as the Oriental Greenfinch in Japan?

Yes the Common gulls were from last week. And yes again, a name change for the finch...
