Photo Shoot Out- Wild...Birds

Yipeee!!!! I was able to dig some photos for the Friday Shoot out- Wildlife, according to Patty we don't have to go to the jungle and chase for wild animals, thanks to Butler and Bagman to clarify this one :-) but actually I'm still confused if it's wild life or wild animals only hahaha, because mine is about "wild birds" LOL. Oh well...better have one than nothing hehehe (although I told Patty and Butler and Bagman that I won't be able to join them for today's shoot out... but here I am).

I have only ducks and swans to share with you. I hope it's ok :-), anyways here they are:


These swans migrate from Siberia to Misawa during winter season



Another shot, the first photo and above were taken in Ichou Park last December



This photo and the remaining pictures below were taken in Shimoda Swan Park last February, I have seen only 6 swans and the rest were ducks. I did blog about Shimoda Swan Park, click here for more photos.



The six swans among the hundreds of ducks, they were like one family



I'm not sure if this is the whooper or whistling swan (according from the information on the board there are 2 kinds of swan here, see last photo) I didn't hear them whistling or whooping hehehe



Ducks, click the last photo to check what kind of ducks are these, I can not tell


This board tells the different kinds of ducks and swans of Magitsutsumi, click the photo to see

Shimoda Swan Park






During winter, swans from Siberia are migrating to Japan. Last Saturday we headed to Shimoda Swan Park to see the swans but only to find out there were only 5 of them and hundreds of ducks hehehe. You can still see some snow on the lake.

I think we have to go back here next month to see more swans :-)
