These photos were taken this morning 10/25 in a small bay-side park in Fukuoka, Japan. They were foraging for insects in an open, grassy field. The first picture is I assume, a male and female, the other of the female. I noted that the tail feathers were pointed, which is somewhat rare. This bird is not in my field guide, so any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a few guesses but will not print them here.
