The magpie often seen in Tomakomai.
In Japan, it had been breeding for many years in limited areas like Saga Prefecture, but it has started to be seen in Tomakomai for about 20 to 30 years.
About the size of a pigeon, it has a stylish black and white body with long tail feathers that shimmer blue to green depending on the light✨. You might find it perched on power lines near the Tomakomai Tourist Information Center, so be sure to look for it!

🌸 The cherry blossoms are in full bloom! 🌸
The image shows the cherry blossoms at "Idemitsu Culture Park" in the city center.
The blooming of cherry blossoms in Tomakomai tends to be later compared to Sapporo, often blooming in mid-May, but it seems to be getting earlier each year. 🌸
Could this be due to climate change?

🌸 The Ezo Yamazakura cherry blossoms in front of Tomakomai Station have started to bloom. 🌸
Today, the expected high temperature is 11°C, making it a bit chilly, and the sunlight is weak, so I couldn't take very good photos. However, I believe you'll be able to see pictures of the cherry blossoms in full bloom soon.
The white figure in the background of the second photo? It's actually a bus stop. It is shaped like Tomakomai City's official character, Tomachoppu.
If you visit Tomakomai, be sure to check it out in person! 🚢

Cherry blossoms have started to bloom near the entrance of Highland Skating Center, on the east side of Midori Gaoka Park in Tomakomai City🌸
The full bloom at Kintaro Pond, located southwest of Midori Gaoka Park, the city's top cherry blossom spot, seems to be a little further away.
