2026-10: Seonheul Gotjawal in October


 My exploration of my favourite park in Jeju continues on. The weather cooled down nicely throughout October, and while some species became a lot harder to find, others became a bit easier to see. Long gone were Paradise Flycatchers and even the usual Eurasian Jays I was finding, but in their place were Daurian Redstarts, Bull-headed Shrikes, and raptors moving through the skies. A few nice butterflies were still around as well, including that pretty blue Japanese Oakblue.
