Winter Kushiro Shihara enjoy the snow crane dance

Kushiro Mihara, the largest wetland in Japan. It's uninhabited, swamps and streams. In summer, rivers and meadows, green grass; In winter, there is snow and mist. In this warm land, there are endangered animals in the world, red-crowned cranes.

Wild red-crowned cranes are found only in a few parts of East Asia, such as China, Western Siberia in Russia, and Hokkaido in Japan. Red-crowned cranes are migratory birds that migrate between their breeding grounds and their wintering grounds every year. Only the red-crowned cranes of Hokkaido are resident birds and do not migrate.

The red-crowned crane, which flew from Siberia more than half a century ago, is said to be on the verge of extinction due to a lack of food in the winter. So local farmers spontaneously protect and feed red-crowned cranes in winter. With the generous gifts of people, red-crowned cranes not only survived the extinction crisis and thrived continuously, but also gradually evolved from migratory birds to resident birds, becoming the scenery of Kushiro all year round. This is the real version of the story of "crane return kindness".

In winter, snow cranes dance. Only in Hokkaido can you enjoy such elegant scenery.

Recommended crane point
Rain bridge
In the morning, dozens of tripods stand on the bridge, where photographers from all over the world gather to wait for red-crowned cranes. The Seori Stream, which does not freeze completely even in winter, is the best habitat for red-crowned cranes in winter. In the early morning, red-crowned cranes in the fog of the dawn are the most beautiful natural sight here. It was a pity that we arrived too late to see the smoky wonderland.

Tsurumi Platform
Tsurimitai is a red-crowned crane feeding ground in Tsuruji Village and a great place to see the crane dance in the snow. Look at other people's long guns and cannons, and look at the camera in my hand, it's understandable that I can't get good pictures.
