Birdwatching in Maioka Koen (April 10, 2011)

Spring has come.  Japanese Bush Warblers were singing everywhere while Chinese Bamboo Partridge was very vocal, too.  Cherry trees are nearly full bloom while magnolia's flowering season was nearly finished.  Most of winter migrants seemed to leave as the forest has become quiet.
