The birds of Kabu Island

Kabu Island (Hachinohe City)
Kabu Island is an important breeding ground for the black-tailed gulls which are classified as a National Protected Species. From March to August, the amazing sight of 30 thousand gulls flying around the island wildly can be seen.
This is how the local tourist office describes the little spot named Kabu Island (which is not really an island, more a peninsula) in the harbor of Hachinohe City in Aomori Prefecture. While I was already in this area to explore a few Haikyo and Jesus Christ’s tomb, and being a sucker for cheesy tourist attractions I decided to have a look at this place too.

This was definitely the first time I didn’t see at all what I was shooting and had entirely rely on my gut feeling and the instructions I gave in the darkness to my lovely model Sanaxxx and my assistent Ken. Neither of us saw a thing. The results however are amazing!
