Hydrornis elliotii – ミドリシマヤイロチョウ
Scientific Name: Hydrornis elliotiiEnglish Name: Bar-bellied PittaObserved in: Cat Tien National ParkObserved Timing: Mar-26 Cat Tien国立公園でのターゲットバードといえば、このピッタ。いや私にとっては、ベトナムと言ったら本種という位置づけです。当種がLynxのBird of Viet Nam（第1版）のカバーページを飾っており、このド派手な黄緑色をしたピッタが強烈に印象的だったからです。ヤイロチョウ科に分類される鳥は46種いるようですが、本種は他のどの種とも異なる特別なカラーリングをしています。 念願叶って、公園内のハイドでその雌雄を美しい姿を見ることができました。また、トレイルを歩いているときにも何度か見かけました。公園内にはそれなりの個体が生息しているのかもしれません。 It’s the star bird in Cat Tien National Park. In fact, for me, this species is the bird of Vietnam. It was featured on the cover of the first edition of Birds of Vietnam published by Lynx, and I was immediately captivated by its striking lime-green plumage. There are said to be 46 species in the pitta family, but this one stands out with a colour scheme unlike any other. After years of wanting to see it, I was finally able to admire both the male and female at a hide within the…
Hydrornis soror – コシアオヤイロチョウ
Scientific Name: Hydrornis sororEnglish Name: Blue-rumped PittaObserved in: Cat Tien National ParkObserved Timing: Mar-26 鮮やかなミドリシマヤイロチョウに対して、地味で魅力が劣るようにも見える当種ですが、実際に観察してみて、私の心をつかんだのはこちらだったかもしれません。 一般的なヤイロチョウと比べて一回り大きい本種はとても臆病で、森の奥に姿を現せどほとんど動かず、じっとこちらを見て様子をうかがっています。私たちも彼を刺激をしてはいけないと息をひそめ、じっと待つこと数十分。ようやく目の前に全身を表してくれました。よく見ると、この淡い色もとっても綺麗ですよね。 Compared to the brilliantly coloured Bar-bellied Pitta, this species may appear rather plain and less attractive at first glance. However, after observing it in the field, I found myself even more captivated by this bird. Slightly larger than a typical pitta, it is an exceptionally shy species. Even when it emerges from the depths of the forest, it often remains completely motionless, quietly watching us and assessing the situation. Careful not to disturb it, we stayed still and held our breath for what felt like an eternity. After several tens of minutes, it finally stepped out into full…
Polyplectron germaini – カッショクコクジャク
Scientific Name: Polyplectron germainiEnglish Name: Germain’s Peacock-PheasantObserved in: Cat Tien National ParkObserved Timing: Mar-26 ベトナムにおける地面性の鳥の多様性は特筆すべきものがあります。本種はベトナム南部付近に局所的に分布する希少な鳥であり、絶滅危惧種に指定されています。Cat Tienではハイドから観察することが可能で、美しい羽の青色を垣間見ることができました。雌は現れることはなく、求愛シーンに至らぬまま、ポテンシャルを残したままの退散となりました。 The diversity of ground birds in Vietnam is truly remarkable. This species is a rare bird with a highly localised distribution around southern Vietnam and is currently listed as vulnerable. At Cat Tien, it can be observed from a hide, where we are able to catch glimpses of its beautiful blue plumage. Unfortunately, no female appeared during our visit, and I never had the chance to witness any courtship behaviour.
Lophura diardi – シマハッカン
Scientific Name: Lophura diardiEnglish Name: Siamese FirebackObserved in: Cat Tien National ParkObserved Timing: Mar-26 目の周りの鮮やかな赤色が美しい本種は、英名にもある通り、タイおよび、その周辺国に分布する鳥です。 私たちが出会えたのはメスで、滞在中は数度にわたってハイドに通い詰め、オスの出現を待ち続けましたが、その機会は訪れませんでした。オスは頭部が赤色に包まれ、さらにちょんまげが生えているというエキセントリックな出で立ちをしております。いつの日か再挑戦したいと思っています。 This beautiful species is instantly recognisable by the vivid red skin around its eyes and, as its English name suggests, is found in Siam as Thailand and the surrounding counties including Vietnam. The bird we encountered was a female, and throughout our stay we returned to the hide several times in the hope of seeing a male, but the opportunity never came. The male is particularly distinctive, with its head covered in bright red plumage and an eccentric appearance enhanced by a topknot-like crest. It is certainly a species that makes me want to return one day…
Arborophila davidi – サイゴンミヤマテッケイ
Scientific Name: Arborophila davidiEnglish Name: Orange-necked PartridgeObserved in: Cat Tien National ParkObserved Timing: Mar-26 ベトナム南部に局所的に分布するミヤマテッケイの1種であり、後頭部と喉元の明るいオレンジ色が特徴的です。 ハイドでシマハッカンを待っているときに背後から現れ、何とかカメラに収めましたが、その後再び現れることはありませんでした。準絶滅危惧種に指定されている希少な鳥です。 This species of partridge has a highly localised distribution in southern Vietnam and is distinguished by the bright orange plumage on its nape and throat. While we were waiting for a Siamese Fireback at a hide, it suddenly appeared from behind us. I managed to capture a few photographs before it vanished again and never showed itself for the rest of our stay.
