"I'm starving! Gimme fish! I haven't eaten for 15 minutes!" Juvenile kingfishers are pretty greedy.
We found a family of 4 kingfishers at a stream running next to some houses. We enjoyed watching them for a couple of hours.

One of the parent kingfishers brought a fish to the rock and attempted to feed a juvenile but the two young ones squabbled so much over the fish that the adult flew away and ate the fish itself. Comical to watch.

Swallowtail butterfly caterpillars are beautiful and they have a wonderful defence mechanism -- they inflate a hornlike organ called an osmeterium.

Northern Boobook (アオバズク) in Okagaki, Fukuoka. Not the best photos as it was high in the tree and I didn't have my usual 600mm zoom. Never mind, it was great to see it. Thank you to aoyoshi9 for showing me where this beautiful bird was sitting.
