Odds and Ends (East Asia #5)



"I toad you it was a frog!" Said someone who was trying to make a good pun, unsuccessfully, because it actually is a toad.  I think. Watch it be a frog. 


A Pacific Swallow, looking very dandy with the (unintentional) pink color cast, a problem which a month of practicing Photoshop skills has not yet managed to solve. Pacific Swallows are fearless, and to be feared by mosquitoes, flies, and everything small and annoying.
Barn Swallow. For those of you who ask, why has the Barn Swallow not been split into Eurasian and American Barn Swallow even though they are clearly separate species? The answer-question is, Why are you still using Clements?

I use the IOU
How about you?
Only use Clements 
If you want to have laments. 


 No, that's not a leucistic Eurasian Nuthatch, it's just overexposed. Bravo for my photography skills. 



Chinese Pond-heron. It's one of the bajillion herons and egrets in China and Taiwan, albeit one of the easier-to-view ones. What else can I say? 






My one and only Lesser Coucal photo has been enmeshed in a load of junk photos, and it seems to have been sucked into the king vortex of all vortexes, the most feared of all among bloggers and photographers, The Black Hole Of Lost Photos.  The only remaining option to salvage this blog post was to insert the closest thing there was to a Lesser Coucal I had.
