The Mukogawa River runs along the border between Nishinomiya City and Amagasaki City… On the map it looks like this, with the city border marked by the red line ↓

But sometimes the birds line up and show you where it is! Here ↓

Lined up on the sandbar right around the middle of the river are “kawau” (great cormorants).

↓ Right around the middle where the water flows, there was also a little egret, a type of bird often called a white heron (*^^)v It looks small, but it’s 60 cm long!

The ones that weren’t on the border were maybe the ducks? (^^)/~~~ ↓

The spot is just below Kamimuko Bridge here ↓
