新潟県には珍しく、GW中にシギの種類が多く、種数に大きく貢献しました。普通種が普段のところにいない、夕方の囀り狙いで行った山が雨のせいで降り静まり返る等ハプニング続きで右往左往しましたが、普段横目で流してしまう普通種が意外なところにもいたりと新しい発見が多く大変楽しかったです。 ハイライトはなんと言ってもエリマキシギの夏羽！朝6:30、タカブシギを拾いに寄った田んぼにでっかいのが突っ立っているではないですか。BigDay中に会いたかったような、会いたくなかったような、大きく時間を取られました。もふもふでとってもかっこよかったです。いい時間でした。 他にもなかなか今年来ないね〜と言われていたコアジサシ6羽が当日上空から鳴き合いながら頭上を旋回し目の前に降ってきたり、コマドリが割とひらけているMFで初発見なのにカメラをおいてきていたりと自分の中でのドラマがいっぱいあり、思い出に残るBigDayになりました。
