The island were hit by a snowstorm when we was scheduled to go there. These birds are not used to snow so my images are quite rare. The one with colored head is juvenile the others are adult.

First bird out to post from my trip to Japan is a bird familiar to most birders, the Osprey. Yes, it lives in Japan as well. Here on the island in the south, Kyushu. And this location was close to the Arasaki Crane Center.
