半年ぶりの北海道のバードウォッチング。広大な畑や牧草地が広がる十勝平野にやってきました

Bird watching in Hokkaido for the first time in six months.  Have come to the Tokachi Plain with its vast fields and pastures.

ガン / Goose

ガンの姿はまばら。例年より春の訪れが早かったためか、大きな群れは既に北に旅立ったようです

Geese are sparsely seen.  Large flocks  seemed to have already left for the north, perhaps because spring came earlier than usual.

街中の小鳥 / Little birds in town

高層ビルがない帯広市街地。公園や街路樹には小鳥がたくさんいます

Obihiro city center with no high-rise buildings. Parks and street trees are full of small birds.

カモ / Ducks

帯広の川や池には夏冬のカモたち

Summer and winter ducks mix in a pond and a river.
