Smew,ミコアイサ

Several kind of  migratory birds has observed as just like last year in this year in Teganuma (swamp) ,where  near to my residence. Among them, I love Smew that is called as "panda duck" in Japan.

It breeds in taiga in the Eurasian subarctic region, and in winter, it overwinters in southward down to Europe, the Black Sea, the Caspian Sea, northern India, and the eastern part of the People's Republic of China. In Japan, in winter, they come to fly to the north of Kyushu for overwintering (winter birds), and in Hokkaido, a small number of birds breed. (Cited from Wikipedia described in Japanese)
