A young Whooper swan and her mother were visiting a hot spring in Hokkaido, Japan. It was -8˚C (about 17˚F) and windy, but the baby bird looked really happy ️
Purple Gallinule (Porphyrio martinicus) is a cute beautiful bird with huge yellow feet. The feet help them walk on floating water plants. I love their white tails, they look like tutus 🙂
We are finally in Japan. Here is my first landscape shot from Japan — Lake Toya in Hokkaido, the northern island that has splendid seafood and abundant nature.
I am moving to Japan in the early spring 2018, and I am offering some “Artist Original” fine art prints, gallery wraps, matted prints, etc., here at much lower prices than usual.
