Very cool Stu! I was an exchange student in Hakodate way back in 1993. I sure wish I had been into photography at the time... Amazing birds and great photos of them!

Hi Erik, that was a few years before my time, if you ever come back for a visit there are lots of birds waiting to pose for your camera..........

Beautiful birds. I can't believe the size of the Steller's Sea Eagle. Great shots and a joy to see; thanks for posting them.

Stu, those Stellers are just.......well, STELLAR! And a totally black woodpecker....too cool.
Keep them coming as I truly enjoy seeing birds from that corner of the globe.
