鶴見台

以釧路為中心，客居在北海道的丹頂鶴（Red-crowned Crane）大概有1500隻。丹頂鶴雖然一副不食人間煙火的美仙子模樣，可實際上它們最愛吃玉米，剛到這裏時，把渡部TOME女士的莊家啃食的、得一片狼藉。從1963年以來，TOME女士和兒子堅持餵食丹頂鶴，這片專門的餵食區域，就是“鶴見台”，這裏的丹頂鶴有100-200隻。丹頂鶴雌雄成鳥和幼鳥形影相隨，雄鳥會幫助撫育幼鳥，因而丹頂鶴是夫妻恩愛的象徵，並以幸運鳥著稱。

閑雲之下，雪的那端，白鶴悠然，不染半點煙火，時而曲頸向天，時而振翅高飛，好一副丹青水墨畫卷。丹頂鶴（red-crowned crane）是客居在這裏的美仙子，以釧路為中心，北海道大概有1500隻。

翻出了此前的照片，再次看到時，想不到是如此之美。我們是冬季去的，不知道其他季節的景色如何呢？這裏估計一直有專門來拍照的攝影團隊，並且明確不許發出大聲，以免打擾了這些可愛的仙鶴。

Weather is good here, if I take a long focus camera, I will be able to take pictures of all kinds of postures and states of the day. It must be a great love of photographers to watch and take pictures from 11 o'clock until 2 o'clock. I really think they are very interesting. I wait until 2 o'clock to see the spectacular scenes of all of them taking off, but it is very beautiful to only take pictures of a few flying groups at 3 o'clock. Every time you fly over your head, you must have a lot of sighs.

In Japan, red-crowned cranes are known as auspicious birds. This is the first place in the world where red-crowned cranes are successfully hatched. Every winter, red-crowned cranes fly from Siberia, so this is the perfect place to watch wild cranes.
