Red-crowned Cranes in the Snow in Tsurui Village & More [Hokkaido Mirai Note (54)]
From the wonderful photos of Hokkaido taken and submitted by all of you, we're introducing three carefully selected posts again this time!
Red-crowned Cranes (Tsurui Village)
I drove to Eastern Hokkaido, hoping to photograph the red-crowned cranes!
Just at feeding time, many cranes descended, and I was able to capture a truly wonderful shot!
I spent an amazing time watching them; I never got tired of it!

This is a truly wonderful photo that shows the relationship of trust built with the red-crowned cranes by local people over many years!
The red-crowned cranes, which migrate here from late October to March, have a wingspan of over 2 meters.
To maintain a comfortable environment for the cranes, we must be careful not to startle them or drop any food. I'd love to see the dance of the cranes while respecting these rules!
A Yawning Ural Owl (Sapporo City)
Maybe the morning sun felt good, because this Ural owl let out a big yawn.
It was a truly heartwarming moment.

An adorable shot of an owl opening its mouth wide while basking in the sunlight!
The Ural owl's charming feature is its heart-shaped face, which apparently acts as an antenna to catch even the faintest sounds!
Owls are mostly inactive during the day, so I'd love to watch them relaxing freely in the forest!
Shopping Arcade (Otaru City)
I took a walk through the shopping arcade in Otaru. There were old-fashioned shops, and I enjoyed the very retro atmosphere!

A shot that captures the sturdy arcade, embracing its long history!
The arcade of Otaru Sun Mall Ichibangai, built in 1990, is said to be equipped with a retractable roof to protect from rain and snow.
Shopping arcades have wonderful old-fashioned shops and charming signs, offering many ways to enjoy them!
