This week’s walks didn’t have a lot of surprises, well, except that the weather was a lot nicer than I expected it to be.
A couple of years ago I saw this crane that was trying very hard to swallow a fish that was about 12 times bigger than his neck. I think it was a bird about the size of one I posted a picture of a couple of weeks ago. That bird came right up to me on the pathway.
Today I saw bird perched on a small structure in the edge of the lake at Heiwa Park. I thought it was interesting, so I stopped to watch him for a little while. He was stretching and shaking his wings and head and then just standing very still. No idea what that was all about.
Here are a couple of the pictures I took:
