Westernized and yet profoundly Asian, Japan remains an enigmatic land. The Japanese archipelago with its jagged and broken coastline and its high mountain peaks possesses some of the most striking scenery in eastern Asia. Nowhere in Japan is far from the sea\u00a0and\u00a0this has an immeasurable influence on both landscape and people. If your mental image of Japan is of shiny consumer exports, high technology, endless overcrowding and automatic everything, then join us\u00a0at Bird-Photo-Tours Asia\u00a0to create images of Japan\u2019s untamed side.\u00a0Imagine seeing hundreds of the stunningly beautiful but rare Red-crowned\u00a0Cranes on Hokkaido, dancing and displaying at their riverine roosts and at their feeding grounds. Experience a boat ride among the shimmering pack ice and photograph one of the world\u2019s largest and most dramatic raptor:\u00a0the Steller\u2019s\u00a0Sea\u00a0Eagle. Not only are the raptors huge but this land is also home to the largest owl on our planet: the magnificent Blakinston’s Fish Owl. This Bird-Photo-Tour will provide the opportunity to photograph this stunning owl at close range. Think of being within arm\u2019s reach of hundreds of delightful\u00a0Whooper\u00a0Swans at ice-coated and mist-fringed lakes and wintry seacoasts. Herds of sika deer and red fox, flocks of sea ducks, several species of gulls and some inspiring scenic opportunities all add to the charm of Hokkaido.\u00a0A visit to upcountry Japan is an experience in itself and\u00a0one that requires a spirit of adventure and a willingness to adapt to new ways. Simple things like eating Japanese food and sleeping on a futon are very different from back home, but add to our experience as we explore\u00a0the\u00a0cultural differences.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
