Some says this is the best looking crane in the world. After this day I am tempted to agree.
First image was on a bridge at dawn. The last one at lunch time. They spent the night in the river and got breakfast and lunch at a sanctuary, Akan Tancho no Sato.

A short stop betweenTokyo and the Monkeys. I got better images of this small duck then I ever got at home. Here they was not shy at all.

 We are now on Janaps largest island on our way to see the Snow monkeys. This was a stop at an old castle on the route. The dark image, the camera was not fast enough, or maybe I wasn´t,  but as an image I like it.

 Everybody who has been on a trip similar like this one knows the feeling of standing there watching the sunrise and the cranes flight over your head.
