Hamarikyu Garden Bird Observation Party

[Sam] December 13, 2018 09:00

DSC08067ELSR'.jpgDSC08072RS'G.jpg On December 9, a bird watching event hosted by the bird watching Club in Chuo-ku (co-hosted by the Chuo-ku Regional Home Education Promotion Council) was held at Hamarikyu Garden. 9:30~11:30

The number of participants was over 70 more than expected.

After gathering at the entrance of the main gate (Ote-mon gate), guided by members of the bird watching Club in Chuo-ku, we enjoyed bird watching while strolling along the route between Uchibori, Outdoor Table Square, Shinsenza Kamoba, Shioiri-no-ike Pond, Yokobori-Koshindo Kamoba and Hanakien.

It is said that there are fewer bird species than usual, but this time we met Tobi, Hakusekirei, brown-eared bulbul, Japanese white-eye, daurian redstart. common sandpiper, Yurikamome, Indian spot-billed duck, Ooban, little egret, grey heron, Kawau, Hoshihajiro, tufted duck, northern shoveler, mallard, northern pintail, green-winged teal.

Some say that the number of Tobi and seagull observed in the park has decreased since the relocation of the Tsukiji Market, but it is a valuable oasis where you can enjoy nature by contacting many wild birds nearby.
