Birdwatching in Inzai City, Motono Village and Abiko City

It is the first record on Siberian White Crane in southeastern Honshu. Although I had seen a few times before, I visited there to see my friend. Weather was fine and calm. We immediately found the crane after arriving the feeding point. There were about 50 people who were photographing the crane. We joined with them and photographed it for 30 minutes. Then, we visited several locations for watching open country birds. Another highlight was Japanese Reed Buntings which are not so easy to see in winter.
