In fact, it’s one of the best places in the country to observe wild birds. Birdathon competitions are now held to see who can spot the most species of wild birds in one day, and it’s not unusual for this total to exceed 100 in Fukuoka. That’s well known to the people whose hobby is bird watching, and people from all over the country flock to Fukuoka for birding.
