Places and times seen in Munakata city
Basically it is a stray bird or a bird, but in Munakata it is a winter bird. From around October to around April, you can observe normally in the vicinity of Satoyama and Satoyama throughout the city.
However, because it makes a plain color and walks around the forest floor while sounding, I can hear the voice, but there is also a protective color, so it is quite difficult to catch the figure.
Characteristic
It is a small bird with a total length of about 10 cm. It is the smaller one among the birds observed in Japan. Same color of both sexes.
Head big and short tail. Full body, dark brown, there are small white spots fine in the whole body. The brown spot is light brown and fine and unclear.
There are dark brown horizontal spots on the body from the back, raincoat, wind, tail, and underside. The beak is thin, dark brown with the feet, the line of association turns yellowish brown.
Habit
Living on a forest floor such as a conifer forest or a needle broad mixed forest of the subalpine belt from the flat ground. Act with one or two pairs, walk around gaps such as banks and fallen trees and the ground, and eat insects and spiders.
Crying sounds like "chat", and in the breeding season it stops at high places and complicates "complicatedly" such as "Peppy Chiu Tui Chiririzzi" and it sounds long and loud.
distribution
As resident birds or birds inhabit the mountains mainly from the flat land throughout the country along the mountain stream. I see a lot in the islands on the side of the Sea of Japan in the spring and autumn migration times, but it is considered that the northern one is going south. Some winter overwintering in the Nansei Islands etc in winter.
It lives in various parts of Europe, near the Silk Road, along the Yellow Sea, along the coast of the East China Sea, the Korean Peninsula and others.
Other
In the prefecture, a lot of pairs are breeding in Hikokoshan Yamanaka, you can observe the situation of sounding loudly in May to make a pair or carrying moss etc to the nest for nest building.
