Winter birds

It's cold, it's wet and it's dark. This winter lasts too long. I hardly leave the warmth of our cabin when I don't have to. Is this also part of El Nino? 

Spoonbills are wandering around Imazu. This Black-faced SB, クロツラヘラサギ has a bunch of spring feathers on its head. We are heading in the right direction!



Impaled by a Shrike I suppose. The bird will eat it when supplies are thinning out. 




On a sunny day a big flock of Greater Scaups, スズガモ drifts by. 



Spot the odd one out
Not only Scaups. There is a Tufted, キンクロハジロ in there as well





Great Cormorants, カワウ are taking a break. There must have been 500 birds
