Cackling Goose, シジュウカラガン

On the way back to Fukuoka from Ube we stopped at Sanyo Onoda to see the Cackling Goose, シジュウカラガン. From the parking lot where we parked the bus, I walked to the area with the ponds. There were many ducks, but no geese. No photographers either, so I suspected my target bird had left. However, just before heading back to the car I met a lonesome birder, who could tell me that it had been seen the day before and had probably moved to another area of reclaimed land. I took my chances. Crossed the river and walked, walked, walked until... BINGO

11.2 km later, there was our Canadian guest, the Cackling Goose, シジュウカラガン. In company of 3 Greater White-fronted Geese, マガン
















良かった!
