Migratory birds have arrived at the Ishikari River basin’s old rivers and lakes, bringing spring from the south.
Due to the mild winter, the ice melting in the marshes is about two weeks earlier than usual, and swans, greater white-fronted geese, and bean geese are gathering there.
Why don’t you refresh yourself with the cute gestures and powerful flapping of the migratory birds’ wings, and avoid the crowds and enjoy the fresh air?
