Last part about this place is about the Baikal Teals, トモエガモ They made the biggest impression on me, when I watched them flocking together, flying overhead, making the sound of an approaching windstorm. That was so spectacular, mind-blowing, awesome!!!
Baikal Teals, トモエガモ😲
There is no place to observe them close by unless they venture up the river. Like these 3
Whooper Swans, オオハクチョウ, one with some kind of tracking device. Doesn't that bother him (or her)?
Every year a flock of Cranes come to spend the winter. This time there were maybe 100, mostly Hooded Cranes, ナベヅル. I didn't look for unusual markings; there are really not enough hours in a day. And, as it happened they all flew up when I walked around the fields. Did I come too close?
It was a great 3-day weekend. The weather was good on the 1st and 3rd day. The rain that was forecasted for the 2nd day did not come, so we were able to continue as usual. temperatures were freezing early in the morning, but up to 12C later on.
