What I saw today

Today on my way to work I cycled past the little river. The cherry blossoms have held on for a long time this year, but they are almost finished.


I saw a cormorant, but it was very busy, fishing. I took a lot of pictures, mostly of bubbles. This is the only one that included some cormorant.


I also saw the Grey Heron, who was standing very still, perhaps washing his feet.


The Little Egret was there too, talking to himself.



I saw some carp, including one that appears to be albino. I don't think I've ever seen a white one before.


And last but not least, I got a rare glimpse of the amazing Umbrella Bird in its natural habitat.
