Tokyo Port Wild Bird Park

Tokyo Port Wild Bird Park (tōkyōkō yachō kōen) is a park and nature reserve located in Ōta Ward, Tokyo. The park was created on reclaimed land after local residents campaigned for its conservation, and comprises 36 hectares in area. It receives around 50,000 visitors annually. According to their website, 237 species of birds have been recorded in the park since 1990 (as of March 2023), and around 120 are observed annually. The park includes brackish and freshwater ponds, streams, forests, and grassy fields. Varieties of crabs and insects can also be observed there. On the edge of the Port of Tokyo, the park sits directly north of Ōta Market. It is surrounded by highways like the Bayshore Route and other parts of the Shuto Expressway. The park is under the jurisdiction of the Tokyo Port Authority, and its dedicated manager is the Tokyo Port Wild Bird Park Group (comprising Tokyo Port Terminal Corporation and the Wild Bird Society of Japan). Every year in May and November, the Tokyo Port Wild Bird Park Festival is held there.
