This year, Tsukuda moat has been developed so that the tide is reflected and the relationship between living things and the environment can be understood.
We discovered a winter migratory bird "Yoshigamo" on a floating island located in the center of the moat. Reed ducks come to Japan from Siberia, northern China and Mongolia for wintering. In the vicinity, you can see about 40 birds in the moat of the Imperial Palace, but for some reason it is not found in Hamarikyu. It is a relatively small number of ducks that winter in Japan.
And why is it? ? ? Only one bird came to Tsukudabori from last year.
There seems to be no territorial dispute with the previous resident, Indian spot-billed duck. I'm sleeping comfortably on Ukishima.
The wings of the head, which is said to be the reed duck's Napoleon hat, have a unique shape with beautiful deep green and tea.
When the tide becomes low and the algae on the moat stone becomes easier to eat, the meal time! I'm going out with Indian spot-billed duck and others.
When walking around Tsukuda moat in winter, be sure to look for reed ducks. There is no doubt that there is a valuable experience in birdwatching in Chuo-ku! That's right.
