April cruise
I organized Tomakomai cruise, my first time held in April. Though I could not expect species observed in this time, it became good cruise.
Ancient Murrelet.
Hudreds of Short-tailed Shearwaters migrated to east.
Summer plumage of Long tail duck which is difficult to see in Hokkaido.
Flock of Velver Scoter. I could observe them at short range. Scoters are very timid, run away as soon as the boat approaches. Was it mating?

Confusing female wigeon
A confusing female Wigeon was in flock of Eurasian Wigeon at Mukawa (left one).
It is seemed to be a female American wigeon.
The feature of American is grayish head and white wind flap. But I didn't see its wind flap...
A male American Wigeon stayed here one month ago. This female was looked paired with Eurasian Wigeon (right one). Is it Hybrid?
Right one is Eurasian and left one is pending individual.
Common Scoter.
