2024-09-19: Jeju City

 Fall migration has really begun in full swing now, with a nice turnover each day in my local patch Shinsan Park in Jeju City. Blue-and-white Flycatchers are moving through, as are a few leaf warblers, Asian Brown Flycatchers, and Grey Streaked Flycatchers. Best highlight was an immature Cuculus species, what I'm assuming is a Lesser based on a few features. It flew in around the stream area, and caught a caterpillar. It hung around for a couple days afterwards.

Another highlight was a Striated Heron, seen briefly on a rainy morning in the stream area. No photos unfortunately, but seen well in the binocs.

Blue-and-white Flycatcher. Nice blue coming in on the wings!

Brown-eared Bulbul having a wash in the fountain.

Immature Lesser Cuckoo. I'm guessing Indian Cuckoo is excluded due to some of the red present on the feathers.
