Falcons in Tokyo
11

Hama Rikyu Gardens, a famous park in Tokyo, has a falcon event on January 2 and 3. If you enjoy birding and ever come to Japan, it is a must-see. I got some good shots, but shooting the birds in flight was difficult. Well, it was for me anyway!

The highlight of the event was a bird, sitting on a building outside the park, being called to hit a simulated target. It’s good to see these traditional skills being protected when so much is being lost.

For these photos, I used the Fujifilm X-T3 and the 100-400 mm lens.
