Cranes back to Marshland

Today I went to bike on the gravel road that cut through the marsh.

Motor vehicles are not permitted on the road, so my friend and I were the only ones on road for the three hour Marshland bike trip.

Japanese cranes are back in the marsh for the spring and you hardly see them in the Tsurui village anymore.

AFter biking about 30 minutues, I found one pair of white dots in the yellowish grass.

Sure enough they were Tancho(Japanese Cranes)looking for food in the marsh.
