[Oversea] Whooper Swan 白天鵝

Thanks for sharing your many lovely photos from Japan;looks like you had a great trip. The Blakiston's Fish Owl is particularly juicy, was this taken at the hotel in Nakashibetsu?
These swans are actually Whooper Swans  and are told from Tundra Swan by their more 'triangular' head profile ( not well illustrated in Brazils book), longer neck and have more yellow on the bill than Tundra Swans. Nice atmospheric pictures nevertheless.
Cheers
