Kamo river is a rest place for travelers and Kyoto citizenz.
I get off at Gion Shijyo of Keihan train.
I get off the riverbank of Kamogawa at Kyoto Shijo-dorian.
I observe Small heron, Blue heron, Goi heron, Cormorant, Spotbill duck.

Small heron looks into the water and catches small fish quickly.
I am impressed by the Small heron's sharp eyes and quick movement.
Small heron is hunting only 3 m far from people.

Families with children are cheering and taking small fish and crabs.
Medaka and Oikawa 's frys are swimming in herd.
When going upstream in the Takano River a little, Black Kite snows to the river and catches the fish.
Black Kite fly like a fighter aircraft suddenly descends to the river, catches fish, and eats fish in the middle of the river.

Please observe wild birds in Kamogawa between Kyoto sightseeing.
In the summer, you can observe many birds.
That's it.
