A very cold day. The park was bit quiet, though some winter migrants finally arrived such as Pale Thrush.

Yellow-bellied Tit is a lifer for me. It is rather small and restless. So hard to shoot photos. Besides the tits, there were very few birds. Normally, about 10 species of gulls are seen. However, only four species were seen.
In Katori and Itako, some raptors were seen well.

Autumn leaves season is nearly ending. Very few winter migrants yet. Eurasian Woodcock was feeding in the gully but so far away.
