Drifting ice off the coast of Shiretoko (Rausucho) is home to drift ice and Steller's sea eagles. When dozens of Steller's sea eagles and white-tailed eagles gather, their large size creates a truly dramatic sight.

Off the coast of Shiretoko (Rausucho) Here are the drift ice and a Steller's sea eagle. This weekend it was warm in Hokkaido and a southerly wind blew, so I was worried the drift ice might be pushed away, but the ice band remained. The drift ice will be gone next month, and from late April you can see orcas and whales.

Staying at Kussharo Prince Hotel, you'll hear the calls of whooper swans on Lake Kussharo in the morning. In cold beyond −10°C, the crackle of firewood echoes from the fireplace. Listen to the clear lake surface and the quietly spreading sounds along the shore. This stay turns a silence you can only feel here into sound. 📍Kussharo Prince Hotel https://www.instagram.com/kussharo_ph/...

At Jigokudani Monkey Park in Nagano Prefecture, photographed Title: Reverie

Otowa Bridge in Tsuruimura, Hokkaido It is a famous spot for photographing the red-crowned cranes.

The swan takes off Because the swan has a large, heavy body it runs and pushes off the water to gain speed before taking flight.

A silhouette of a whooper swan bathed in the setting sun. Some birds use it as a stopover before flying further south in Japan, but many spend the winter in Hokkaido. At sunrise and sunset, the river glows gold as they land on the water or take flight, creating a truly beautiful sight.

From behind Luca's back

It's been a month since I first used an SLR. It still takes a lot of 📸 practice

This is a meyer cat taken at Maruyama Zoo in Sapporo City, Hokkaido in July. It was impressive to see him leaning against the glass in the severe heat of Japan. Animals are hot, too!

Aina: "I'm full... Next time, I'll play with a wooden stick."

- Pashari 📸 where they are sleeping together … I'm a good friend, but when I see milk in front of me, I jump 🐻💦 on it

Only Luca? I thought ...? There was 🐻🐻 also Aina who said, "I'm here!"

"Hooray! ｣

"Just a little more! ｣ There is a snack at the end of the line of sight...

Kanta "Be~👅"

Kotaro: "It's time to wake up. Squid, if you can't get up for a moment, lend me a hand..."

｢... (Is it time to wake up~)"

The temperature is high, so the sun is ☀ basking The way she lies down and relaxes looks a lot like 🐻🐻 her mother, Erica (2nd photo) *Erica is in hibernation, so this is a photo from the past.

Try pushing a snowball or dancing next to it Louis was 👍 full of energy without worrying about the cold

Suyasuya and taking a nap 💤

Daikichi and nuts covered with light snow It's like 🐻🍩 a donut sprinkled with powdered sugar Squid are more familiar to the people of Hokkaido? 🐻

Zookeeper: "You're cute today." Pirika: "I'm embarrassed."
