Japan Birds during FONT Birding Tours in Hegura Island


This Isabelline Wheatear was seen along the rocky coastline of Hegura Island
during the FONT tour in May 2007.
The species normally occurs in central and western Asia,
and winters in Africa.
(We've seen the bird during FONT tours in Turkey.)
Somehow, this bird made its way to Hegura Island in the Sea of Japan.
When "A Field Guide to the Birds of Japan" was published in 1982,
there was only one record of this species for Japan.
